A:No. In the synoptic gospels, the Last Supper was indeed the celebration of the Last Supper. Hebrew days are counted from evening to evening, so Jesus was crucified at 9 am, the third hour, on the day of the Passover.


However, for theological reasons the author of John's Gospel changed both the day and time of day for the crucifixion, which took place on the "day of preparation." Notice that there is no mention of a Last Supper (because it was not yet the Passover), but after the normal meal Jesus washed the feet of the apostles. He was crucified at 12 noon, the sixth hour, and spent only three hours on the cross.

Did Jesus celebrate the Passover before he died?

A:In the synoptic gospels - yes. When Jesus and the disciples celebrated the Passover feast, this would become the Christian Last Supper. After the supper was finished, they sang a hymn (Mark 14:26), as was the practice at the end of the Passover meal. For theological reasons, John's Gospel places the crucifixion on the day of preparation for the Passover - the day before. Jesus did not celebrate the Passover.

Is it OK for today's Christians to celebrate passover with read and wine?

Yes. Some Christians celebrate Passover as the Jews celebrate it. They roast and eat lamb, bitter herbs, and unleavened matzo. Others follow the instructions that Jesus gave to his disciples at the Last Supper before he was crucified, and share bread (usually unleavened) and wine instead of roasted lamb.

Passover existed before the Last Supper, so Jesus did not institute it at the Last Supper. He was celebrating the Passover and instituted the Eucharist at the Last Supper.
