It was the month of Nisan in the land of Palestine, and a prettier spring one could hardly remember. This "beginning of months" in the Jewish calendar (corresponding roughly to the latter part of our March and the first of April) marked the end of three-and-one-half years of Jesus' ministry, and the approximate end of thirty-three-and-a-half years of His human, physical life. It was the thirteenth of this first month, sometime during the day, when Jesus was asked by His disciples, "Where would you like to take the Passover this year?"
