Luke 22:8-9

Only Luke recorded the names of the disciples whom Jesus sent to prepare for the Passover meal. Peter and John, of course, later became Jesus’ chief servants as leaders of the Christians in Jerusalem (cf. Acts 3:1-2; Acts 8:14). This detail links the Gospel and Acts. Luke also stressed Jesus’ initiation of plans to observe the Passover. These plans were confidential to avoid premature arrest.
