2 You shall sacrifice the Passover to Yahweh your God, of the flock and the herd, in the place which Yahweh shall choose, to cause his name to dwell there.
But to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose out of all your tribes, to put his name there, even to his habitation shall you seek, and there you shall come;
Only your holy things which you have, and your vows, you shall take, and go to the place which Yahweh shall choose:

but you shall eat them before Yahweh your God in the place which Yahweh your God shall choose, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your man-servant, and your maid-servant, and the Levite who is within your gates: and you shall rejoice before Yahweh your God in all that you put your hand to.
You shall eat it before Yahweh your God year by year in the place which Yahweh shall choose, you and your household.

Now on the first day of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying to him, "Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?"
He sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat."
He said to them, "I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer,
