Matthew 26:16 in context

The verses around it, from Matthew 26.

12 By pouring this perfume on Me, she has prepared My body for burial.

13 Truly I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”

14 Then one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

15 and asked, “What are you willing to give me if I hand Him over to you?” And they set out for him thirty pieces of silver.

16 So from then on Judas looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

17 On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”

18 He answered, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him that the Teacher says, ‘My time is near. I will keep the Passover with My disciples at your house.’”

19 So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.

20 When evening came, Jesus was reclining with the twelve disciples.
