14and wheresoever he shall enter in, say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith, Where is my guest-chamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?
15And he will himself show you a large upper room furnished [and] ready: and there make ready for us.
16And the disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
17And when it was evening he cometh with the twelve.
18And as they sat and were eating, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you shall betray me, [even] he that eateth with me.
19They began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I?
20And he said unto them, [It is] one of the twelve, he that dippeth with me in the dish.

John Gill's Exposition
John Gill (1697–1771) · Exposition of the Old and New Testament · 18th-century historical commentary
“And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.] In the afternoon, as it is very reasonable to suppose, Christ set out from Bethany with the rest of the twelve, with the other nine, and came to Jerusalem; where they were joined by Judas, who had covenanted with the chief priests to betray him, and by Peter and John, who had been sent before to prepare the passover; and when it was night, when the second evening had took place, he went with all twelve of them to the house, where the provision to eat the passover together was made for them; (see Gill on “<402620>Matthew 26:20”).”
