Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus – The Plot to Kill Jesus

22:1 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, was near. 2 So the high priests and the scribes were looking for a way to put him to death, because they were afraid of the crowd.

3 But Satan went into Judas called Iscariot, who belonged to the circle of the Twelve. 4 So he went off and discussed with the high priests and the Temple police how he could betray Jesus to them. 5 They were delighted, and agreed to give him money. 6 Judas accepted their offer and began to look for a good opportunity to betray Jesus to them when no crowd was present.
Luke 22:1-6

More Information:

It was only the cross piece that was carried by the prisoner as they headed to the execution area. This was called Golgotha (the skull), traditionally accepted to be a little hill immediately outside the city gate. This was because executions and burials were not permitted within the city and the Romans preferred to execute people beside a road as a lesson to passers-by. Indeed, the Gospels state that passers-by mocked Jesus.
