MARK 14:12 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?”
On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, when it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb, his disciples asked him, where do you want us to go and make preparations for you to eat the Passover? — the Passover preparation is the Last Supper's setup. The Passover lamb was sacrificed on the afternoon of Nisan 14; the Passover meal was eaten that night (which began Nisan 15). The disciples' question about where generates the second detailed foreknowledge scene in the Jerusalem section.
