Passover and eucharist?

The Old Testament Foreshadows the New Testament. The Passover foreshadows the Eucharist in the following ways. During Passover the Jewish people were commanded by God to slaughter an unblemished, male, lamb. This lamb's blood, when smeared over the doorway of a house, protected that family from death. For the Eucharist Jesus is the sacrificial lamb, unblemished with sin. In order for the Gates of Heaven to be re-opened to us, we needed eternal satisfaction for our sin (Adam and Eve's sin). Because Christ is God, and He died for us, He provided that eternal satisfaction. In the Eucharist we receive that eternal sacrifice in the Eucharist in a non- bloody manner.

How did the Eucharist develop from the Jewish tradition?

The Most Holy Eucharist did not develop from Jewish tradition, it was given to us, whole and entire by Our Blessed Savior, Jesus Christ, at the Last Supper. However, it was prefigured in the Old Testament in many ways: for instance, the tree of Life in the garden of Eden which gives eternal life prefigures the Eucharist. The Passover lamb prefigures the Eucharist. The bread and wine offered by the priest, Melchizedek (King of Salem) prefigures the Eucharist. The blood of the covenant (Exodus 24:8) The manna in the desert prefigures the Eucharist. The showbread or Bread of the Presence, which was to be before the Arc of the Covenant always, prefigures the Eucharist.
