179:0.1 During the afternoon of this Thursday, when [[Philip, the Apostle|Philip]] reminded [[the Master]] about the approaching [[Passover]] and [[inquired]] concerning his [[plans]] for its [[celebration]], he had in [[mind]] the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passover_Seder Passover supper] which was due to be eaten on the evening of the next day, Friday. It was the [[custom]] to begin the [[preparations]] for the [[celebration]] of the [[Passover]] not later than noon of the preceding day. And since the [[Jews]] reckoned the day as beginning at sunset, this meant that Saturday's [[Passover]] supper would be eaten on Friday night, sometime before the midnight hour.

179:0.2 [[The apostles]] were, therefore, entirely at a loss to [[understand]] [[the Master]]'s [[announcement]] that they would [[celebrate]] the [[Passover]] one day early. They [[thought]], at least some of them did, that he knew he would be placed under [[arrest]] before the time of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passover_Seder Passover supper] on Friday night and was therefore calling them together for a special supper on this Thursday evening. Others [[thought]] that this was merely a special [[occasion]] which was to precede the regular [[Passover]] [[celebration]].

179:0.3 [[The apostles]] knew that [[Jesus]] had [[celebrated]] other [[Passover]]s without the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pesach#Korban_Pesach lamb]; they knew that he did not [[personally]] [[participate]] in any [[sacrificial]] [[service]] of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacrifice#Judaism Jewish system]. He had many times partaken of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pesach#Korban_Pesach paschal lamb] as a guest, but always, when he was the [[host]], no [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pesach#Korban_Pesach lamb] was served. It would not have been a great [[surprise]] to [[the apostles]] to have seen the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pesach#Korban_Pesach lamb] omitted even on [[Passover]] night, and since this supper was given one day earlier, they thought nothing of its [[absence]].

179:0.4 After [[receiving]] the greetings of [[welcome]] extended by the [[father]] and [[mother]] of [[John Mark]], [[the apostles]] went [[immediately]] to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cenacle upper chamber] while [[Jesus]] lingered behind to talk with the [[John Mark|Mark]] [[family]].

179:0.5 It had been [[understood]] beforehand that [[the Master]] was to [[celebrate]] this occasion alone with his [[twelve apostles]]; therefore no servants were provided to wait upon them.
