Genesis 37:18-20


Joseph Sold by His Brothers

18 And they saw him from a distance, and before he came close to them, they aplotted against him to put him to death.
19 Then they said to one another, “1Here comes this dreamer! 20 So now, come and let us kill him and cast him into one of the pits; and awe will say, ‘A wild beast devoured him.’ Then let us see what will become of his dreams!”

John 11:47-53


The Leaders Plot to Kill Jesus

47 Therefore athe chief priests and the Pharisees bgathered the 1cSanhedrin together, and were saying, “What are we doing? For this man is doing many 2dsigns.
48 If we let Him go on like this, all will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our aplace and our nation.” 49 But one of them, aCaiaphas, bwho was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all, 50 nor do you take into account that ait is better for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.” 51 Now he did not say this from himself, but abeing high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation, 52 and not for the nation only, but in order that He might also agather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad. 53 So from that day on they aplanned together to kill Him.
