The disciples prepare for the Passover (Mt 26:19-26:19)

“The disciples did

As Jesus

Had directed them.

They prepared

The Passover meal.”

 

καὶ ἐποίησαν οἱ μαθηταὶ ὡς συνέταξεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς, καὶ ἡτοίμασαν τὸ πάσχα.

 

This is similar to Mark, chapter 14:16, and Luke, chapter 22:13, but with a little more elaboration there.  These disciples did (καὶ ἐποίησαν οἱ μαθηταὶ) as Jesus had directed them to do (ὡς συνέταξεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς).  They prepared the Passover meal (καὶ ἡτοίμασαν τὸ πάσχα).  Nothing unusual here, the disciples followed the orders of Jesus and had this room ready for the Passover celebration.
