Matthew 26:17-19
17Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?” 18And he said, “Go into the city to a certain man and say to him, ‘The Teacher says, “My time is near; at your house I am keeping the Passover with my disciples.”’” 19And the disciples did as Jesus had directed them, and they prepared the Passover.
12And on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they sacrificed the Passover lamb, his disciples say to him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?” 13And he sends two of his disciples and says to them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you; follow him, 14and wherever he enters, say to the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says, “Where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’ 15And he will show you a large upstairs room furnished and ready; and prepare for us there.” 16And the disciples went out and came into the city and found it just as he had told them; and they prepared the Passover.
7And the day of Unleavened Bread came, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. 8And he sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it.” 9And they said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare it?” 10And he said to them, “Look, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you; follow him into the house into which he enters. 11And you will say to the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’ 12And that one will show you a large upstairs room furnished; prepare it there.” 13And they went away and found it just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.

1. What it says
What did the woman do with the jar of perfume, and what did Jesus say about it (vv. 7, 10–13)?
2. What it means
What does Jesus say about his blood as he gives the cup to the disciples (vv. 27–28)?
3. How I live it
Peter said he would never deny him, and then did (vv. 33–35, 69–75). How can you start over after failing someone?
