And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.

📚 Historical Context
In the first century, the Passover was a major Jewish festival commemorating God's deliverance of Israel from slavery in Egypt, observed annually with a special meal and rituals. Jesus, aware that his crucifixion was imminent, directed his disciples to prepare this Passover meal in Jerusalem as part of his final days, which would transform the traditional observance into the setting for the Last Supper. This event underscores how Jesus fulfilled and reinterpreted Old Testament practices in his ministry.
