Matthew 26:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 26:2

The Plot to Kill Jesus

1 Now it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, that He said to His disciples,

2 ^a“You know that after two days is the Passover, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified.”

3 ^aThen the chief priests,¹ the scribes, and the elders of the people assembled at the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

4 and ^aplotted to take Jesus by trickery and kill Him.

5 But they said, “Not during the feast, lest there be an uproar among the ^apeople.”

The Anointing at Bethany

6 And when Jesus was in ^aBethany at the house of Simon the leper,

7 a woman came to Him having an alabaster flask of very costly fragrant oil, and she poured it on His head as He sat at the table.
