The Last Supper of Jesus was a Jewish Passover meal, or Seder.
Jesus and his disciples were celebrating the festival of the passover.
A:In the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke), Jesus and the disciples were celebrating the Jewish Feast of the Passover in what would become the Last Supper, before the arrest and crucifixion of Jesus. For theological reasons, John's Gospel moves the day of the crucifixion to the day of the preparation for the Passover. This is the reason there is no Last Supper in John's Gospel, simply an ordinary evening meal, with the Last Supper replaced by Jesus washing the feet of the disciples. A:The Passover.
Jesus was the one who started the passover. The passover was a feast that Jesus wanted to have with his disciples (followers) before his death. That's why it is also called the Last Supper.
It is a generally accepted fact that Jesus ate passover supper with his disciples.
The Last Supper was the Passover feast and appears in the Synoptic gospels, Matthew, Mark and Luke, because Passover occurred on the Thursday before the crucifixion. In John's Gospel, the Passover was on the Friday of the crucifixion, so there is no Last Supper recorded, instead Jesus washed the feet of the disciples.
In the synoptic gospels, the Last Supper was on the day of the Jewish Passover feast, so we can say that Jesus and the disciples were partaking of the Passover feast.In John's Gospel, the crucifixion was on the day of preparation for the Passover, so John does not describe a Last Supper, saying just that on evening before, when their supper was ended, Jesus washed the feet of the apostles.
No. The Gospels don't record what he called the meal.
In the synoptic gospels, the Last Supper marked the day of the Passover, a day that Jews mark by a ritual meal. The next day, he was tried, crucified and buried. In the Gospel According to John, Jesus washed the feet of the disciples on the day before the Passover, with no particular emphasis on the supper they had. Jesus was tried, crucified and buried on the day of the Passover.
