Context of Luke 22:12
10Jesus replied, ‘Listen. When you go into the city, a man will meet you. He will be carrying a jar of water. Follow him until he goes into a house. 11You must then say to the master of that house, “Our Teacher sends this message to you: ‘Where is the room for visitors? I will eat the Passover meal there with my disciples.’ ” The man will then show you a large room upstairs. It will have all that you need in it. Prepare the Passover meal there for us all.’ 13So Peter and John went into the city. They found everything that Jesus had told them about. So they prepared the Passover meal. 14When it was time to eat the meal, Jesus arrived. He sat down with his apostles to eat it.
