John 11:53-57

Noyes(i) 53 Therefore from that day forth they consulted together to put him to death. 54 Jesus therefore no longer walked openly among the Jews, but departed thence to the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there abode with the disciples. 55 And the passover of the Jews was at hand; and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves. 56 They sought therefore for Jesus, and said one to another, as they stood in the temple, What think ye? that he will not come to the feast? 57 Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders, that, if any one knew where he was, he should give information, that they might seize him.
