Context of Mark 14:11

9I tell you the truth, wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.” 10Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus into their hands. When they heard this, they were delighted and promised to give him money. So Judas began looking for an opportunity to betray him. 12Now on the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb is sacrificed, Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?” 13He sent two of his disciples and told them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him.
