Matthew 26:4
Of course the only reason that they wanted to do this subtly was because of their fear of the people at large. They did not dare take Him out in public. They wanted to catch Him in private and move Him through a trial very quickly, minimizing the chance for a public reaction. Jesus’ itinerary was apparently only known by His followers. So, the Jewish leaders had know way of knowing where He might be next.
