in an upper room in Jerusalem. j is
supposed by some that this upper room
was in the home of Mary, the mother
Of Mark. 1t was in ian upper room
of this house where the Holy Sprint
was poured out on Pentecost. The es-

After Jesus had ended His talk with
His disciples on the Mount OF Olives
they went on to Bethany and remaned
there quietly on Wednesday and part
of Thursday. Meanwhile Judas went

T into their hands.

of the Passover, for which grea
