Luke 22:2 (New American Standard Bible) 2The chief priests and the scribes (A)were seeking how they might put Him to death; for they were afraid of the people.
The Greek word translated here as "put Him to death" I notice includes the idea of lifting up. It reminds me of the lifting up of the serpent in the wilderness before the Israelites to rid them of the plague of serpents, and how that was a "type" that foreshadowed Jesus.
ἀναιρέω,v \{an-ahee-reh'-o}
1) to take up, to lift up (from the ground) 1a) to take up for myself as mine 1b) to own (an exposed infant) 2) to take away, abolish 2a) to do away with or abrogate customs or ordinances 2b) to put out of the way, kill slay a man
