So the disciples left
The phrase indicates immediate obedience and trust in Jesus' instructions. The Greek word for "disciples" is μαθηταί (mathētai), meaning learners or followers. This highlights their role as students of Jesus, committed to following His teachings and commands. Their departure signifies a readiness to act on faith, a model for Christian discipleship today.

and went into the city
The city referred to is Jerusalem, a place of significant religious and historical importance. Jerusalem was the center of Jewish worship and the location of the Temple. The disciples' journey into the city symbolizes entering into the heart of Jewish faith and tradition, where God's redemptive plan would unfold through Jesus' death and resurrection.

and found things just as Jesus had told them
This phrase underscores Jesus' divine foreknowledge and authority. The Greek word for "found" is εいぷしろんρろーοおみくろんνにゅー (heuron), indicating discovery or realization. The disciples' experience of finding everything as Jesus described reinforces His reliability and the fulfillment of His word, encouraging believers to trust in His promises.

So they prepared the Passover
The Passover is a pivotal Jewish feast commemorating Israel's deliverance from Egypt, as described in Exodus 12. The preparation involved specific rituals and elements, such as the lamb, unleavened bread, and bitter herbs. This act of preparation by the disciples connects the Old Testament deliverance with the new covenant Jesus was about to establish through His sacrifice, symbolizing spiritual liberation from sin.

Verse 16. And they made ready the passover. This would consist in obtaining the Paschal lamb, and taking it to the temple to be sacrificed by the priests. It would then be brought to the house to be cooked; and the unleavened bread, the bitter herbs and the wine would have to be provided, and the water for purification. After all these preparations had been made, the two disciples would return to their Master.
