Luke 22

1 Now the feast of matzah drew near, which is called the Pesach.
2 The chief Kohanim and the Sofrim sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people.
3 Hasatan entered into Yehudah, who was called Ish-K'riot, being numbered with the twelve.
4 He went away, and talked with the chief Kohanim and captains about how he might deliver him to them.
5 They were glad, and agreed to give him money.
6 He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.
7 The day of matzah came, on which the Pesach must be sacrificed.
8 He sent Kefa and Yochanan, saying, "Go and prepare the Pesach for us, that we may eat."
9 They said to him, "Where do you want us to prepare?"
10 He said to them, "Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters.
11 Tell the master of the house, 'The Teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Pesach with my talmidim?"'
12 He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there."
13 They went, found things as he had told them, and they prepared the Pesach.
14 When the hour had come, he sat down with the twelve apostles.
15 He said to them, "I have earnestly desired to eat this Pesach with you before I suffer,
16 for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God."
17 He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, "Take this, and share it among yourselves,
18 for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God comes."
19 He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave to them, saying, "This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me."
20 He took the cup in like manner after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, that which is poured out for you.
21 But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.
22 The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!"
23 They began to question among themselves, which of them it was that would do this thing.
24 There arose also a contention among them, which of them was considered to be greatest.
25 He said to them, "The kings of the Goyim lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called 'benefactors.'
26 But not so with you. But one who is the greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.
27 For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn't it he who sits at the table? But I am in the midst of you as one who serves.
28 But you are those who have continued with me in my temptations.
29 I appoint to you a kingdom, even as my Father appointed to me,
30 that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Yisra'el."
31 The Lord said, "Shim`on, Shim`on, behold, Hasatan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat,
32 but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn't fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers."
33 He said to him, "Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!"
34 He said, "I tell you, Kefa, the rooster will by no means crow today, before you deny that you know me three times."
35 He said to them, "When I sent you out without purse, and wallet, and shoes, did you lack anything?" They said, "Nothing."
36 Then he said to them, "But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
37 For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: 'He was counted with the lawless.' For that which concerns me has an end."
38 They said, "Lord, behold, here are two swords." He said to them, "That is enough."
39 He came out, and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His talmidim also followed him.
40 When he was at the place, he said to them, "Pray that you don't enter into temptation."
41 He was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw, and he knelt down and prayed,
42 saying, "Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done."
43 An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.
44 Being in agony he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.
45 When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the talmidim, and found them sleeping because of grief,
46 and said to them, "Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation."
47 While he was still speaking, behold, a multitude, and he who was called Yehudah, one of the twelve, went in front of them. He came near to Yeshua to kiss him.
48 But Yeshua said to him, "Yehudah, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?"
49 When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, "Lord, shall we strike with the sword?"
50 A certain one of them struck the servant of the Kohen Gadol, and cut off his right ear.
51 But Yeshua answered, "Let me at least do this" -- and he touched his ear, and healed him.
52 Yeshua said to the chief Kohanim, captains of the temple, and Zakenim, who had come against him, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?
53 When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn't stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness."
54 They seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the Kohen Gadol's house. But Kefa followed from a distance.
55 When they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Kefa sat in the midst of them.
56 A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, "This man also was with him."
57 He denied Yeshua, saying, "Woman, I don't know him."
58 After a little while someone else saw him, and said, "You also are one of them!" But Kefa answered, "Man, I am not!"
59 After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, "Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Gelili!"
60 But Kefa said, "Man, I don't know what you are talking about!" Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
61 The Lord turned, and looked at Kefa. Kefa remembered the Lord's word, how he said to him, "Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times."
62 He went out, and wept bitterly.
63 The men who held Yeshua mocked him and beat him.
64 Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, "Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?"
65 They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.
66 As soon as it was day, the assembly of the Zakenim of the people was gathered together, both chief Kohanim and Sofrim, and they led him away into their council, saying,
67 "If you are the Messiah, tell us." But he said to them, "If I tell you, you won't believe,
68 and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.
69 From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God."
70 They all said, "Are you then the Son of God?" He said to them, "You say it, because I AM."
71 They said, "Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!"

Luke 23

1 The whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.
2 They began to accuse him, saying, "We found this man perverting the nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Messiah, a king."
3 Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Yehudim?" He answered him, "So you say."
4 Pilate said to the chief Kohanim and the multitudes, "I find no basis for a charge against this man.
5 But they insisted, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Yehudah, beginning from the Galil even to this place."
6 But when Pilate heard Galil mentioned, he asked if the man was a Gelili.
7 When he found out that he was in Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Yerushalayim in those days.
8 Now when Herod saw Yeshua, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.
9 He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.
10 The chief Kohanim and the Sofrim stood, vehemently accusing him.
11 Herod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.
12 Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.
13 Pilate called together the chief Kohanim and the rulers and the people,
14 and said to them, "You brought this man to me as one that perverts the people, and see, I have examined him before you, and found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him
15 Neither has Herod, for I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.
16 I will therefore chastise him and release him."
17 Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.
18 But they all cried out together, saying, "Away with this man! Release to us Bar-Abba!" --
19 one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder
20 Then Pilate spoke to them again, desiring to release Yeshua,
21 but they shouted, saying, "Crucify! Crucify him!
22 He said to them the third time, "Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him."
23 But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. Their voices and the voices of the chief Kohanim prevailed.
24 Pilate adjudged that what they asked for should be done.
25 He released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Yeshua up to their will.
26 When they led him away, they grabbed one Shim`on of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it after Yeshua.
27 A great multitude of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.
28 But Yeshua, turning to them, said, "Daughters of Yerushalayim, don't weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
29 For behold, the days are coming in which they will say, 'Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.'
30 Then they will begin to tell the mountains, 'Fall on us!' and to the hills, 'Cover us.'
31 For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?"
32 There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.
33 When they came to the place that is called The Skull, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.
34 Yeshua said, "Father, forgive them, for they don't know what they are doing." Dividing his garments among them, they cast lots.
35 The people stood watching. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, "He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Messiah of God, his chosen one!"
36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar
37 and saying, "If you are the King of the Yehudim, save yourself!"
38 An inscription was also written over him in letters of Yevanit, Latin, and Hebrew: "THIS IS THE KING OF THE YEHUDIM.
39 One of the criminals who was hanged insulted him, saying, "If you are the Messiah, save yourself and us!"
40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, "Don't you even fear God, seeing you are in the same condemnation?
41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong."
42 He said to Yeshua, "Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom."
43 Yeshua said to him, "Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise."
44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.
45 The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.
46 Yeshua, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!" Having said this, he breathed his last.
47 When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, "Certainly this was a righteous man."
48 All the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned beating their breasts.
49 All his acquaintances, and the women who followed with him from the Galil, stood far away, watching these things.
50 Behold, a man named Yosef, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man
51 (he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Ramatayim, a city of the Yehudim, who was also waiting for the kingdom of God:
52 this man went to Pilate, and asked for Yeshua' body.
53 He took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no man had ever yet lain.
54 It was the day of the Preparation, and the Shabbat was coming on.
55 The women, who had come with him out of the Galil, followed after, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid.
56 They returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the Shabbat they rested according to the mitzvah.

Luke 24

1 But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they and some others came to the tomb, bringing the spices which they had prepared.
2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb.
3 They entered in, and didn't find the Lord Yeshua' body.
4 It happened, while they were greatly perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling clothing.
5 Becoming terrified, they bowed their faces down to the eretz. They said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead?
6 He isn't here, but is risen. Remember what he told you when he was still in the Galil,
7 saying that the Son of Man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again?"
8 They remembered his words,
9 returned from the tomb, and told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest.
10 Now they were Miryam from Magdala, Yochanah, and Miryam the mother of Ya`akov. The other women with them told these things to the apostles.
11 These words seemed to them to be nonsense, and they didn't believe them.
12 But Kefa got up and ran to the tomb. Stooping and looking in, he saw the strips of linen lying by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering what had happened.
13 Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Amma'us, which was sixty stadia from Yerushalayim.
14 They talked with each other about all of these things which had happened.
15 It happened, while they talked and questioned together, that Yeshua himself came near, and went with them.
16 But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.
17 He said to them, "What are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?"
18 One of them, named Klofah, answered him, "Are you the only stranger in Yerushalayim who doesn't know the things which have happened there in these days?"
19 He said to them, "What things?" They said to him, "The things concerning Yeshua, the Natzri, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people;
20 and how the chief Kohanim and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.
21 But we were hoping that it was he who would redeem Yisra'el. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.
22 Also, certain women of our company amazed us, having arrived early at the tomb;
23 and when they didn't find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.
24 Some of us went to the tomb, and found it just like the women had said, but they didn't see him."
25 He said to them, "Foolish men, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!
26 Didn't the Messiah have to suffer these things, and to enter into his glory?"
27 Beginning from Moshe and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.
28 They drew near to the village, where they were going, and he acted like he would go further.
29 They urged him, saying, "Stay with us, for it is almost evening, and the day is almost over." He went in to stay with them.
30 It happened, when he had sat down at the table with them, he took the bread and gave thanks. Breaking it, he gave to them.
31 Their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, and he vanished out of their sight.
32 They said one to another, "Weren't our hearts burning within us, while he spoke to us along the way, and while he opened the Scriptures to us?"
33 They rose up that very hour, and returned to Yerushalayim, and found the eleven gathered together, and those who were with them,
34 saying, "The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Shim`on!"
35 They related the things that happened along the way, and how he was recognized by them in the breaking of the bread.
36 As they said these things, Yeshua himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, "Shalom be to you."
37 But they were terrified and filled with fear, and supposed that they saw a spirit.
38 He said to them, "Why are you troubled? Why do doubts arise in your hearts?
39 See my hands and my feet, that it is truly me. Touch me and see, for a spirit doesn't have flesh and bones, as you see that I have."
40 When he had said this, he shown them his hands and his feet.
41 While they still didn't believe for joy, and wondered, he said to them, "Do you have anything here to eat?"
42 They gave him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb.
43 He took it, and ate in front of them.
44 He said to them, "This is what I told you, while I was still with you, that all things which are written in the law of Moshe, the prophets, and the psalms, concerning me must be fulfilled."
45 Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the Scriptures.
46 He said to them, "Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Messiah to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,
47 and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning at Yerushalayim.
48 You are witnesses of these things.
49 Behold, I send forth the promise of my Father on you. But wait in the city of Yerushalayim until you are clothed with power from on high."
50 He led them out as far as to Beit-Anyah, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
51 It happened, while he blessed them, that he withdrew from them, and was carried up into heaven.
52 They worshiped him, and returned to Yerushalayim with great joy,
53 and were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amein.

1 Corinthians 5:6-8

6 Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump?
7 Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Messiah, our Pesach, has been sacrificed in our place.
8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the matzah of sincerity and truth.
