Mk 14:12b ... his disciples say to him, ... "Where do you want us to go to prepare so that you may eat the passover?"

The third and fourth phrases have these 5 text and 8 dialog words, ... legousin autoi hoi mathetai autou, Pou theleis apelthontes etoimasomen hina fageis to pasxa (say to him the disciples of him, ... "Where do you want having gone we to prepare that you may eat the passover")?

The 13 words are bottom up. According to the context of the text, Jesus and an unknown number of disciples are somewhere in Bethany, possibly still in the house of Simon the leper. At least two of his disciples come before Jesus to ask him what to do next. The term "eat the passover" probably has the same metaphorical meaning as "drink the cup that I drink" that Jesus earlier used on James and John (death, body and blood).
