Our Blessed Lord used the occasion of the Passover to institute the Lord's Supper: the most Holy Eucharist, commonly known as the Mass. The meaning that He gave to it came the following day, on Good Friday, when He offered His life on the cross for the redemption and salvation of all of us. Thus the meaning that He gave it was the sacrifice of Himself upon the cross. This meaning was always there as the old Passover meal re-presented the Passover in Egypt when God saved His people which was to foreshadow the great Passover when God saved His people through the wood of the cross.
It was about the meal in which the lamb would be sacrificed.
The Last Supper of Jesus was a Jewish Passover meal, or Seder.
his mom
He washed the feet of the apostles.
He said that every time we keep Passover, to do it in remembrance of him. So thats my meal with him :)
It was the Passover evening meal. He was crucified on the Passover day as in Jewish tradition, a day begins and ends at sunset.
It was important because i said so.
The theme is the last meal, the Passover meal, that Jesus shared with his disciples before being arrested.
No. The Gospels don't record what he called the meal.
The day before Jesus died on the cross was the Jewish Passover and he celebrated the Seder, the passover evening meal that remembers the Jewish exodus from Egypt. This meal is still celebrated to this day and it is very reminiscent of the Catholic mass as bread and wine are passed around the table for all to share.
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.
Jesus celebrated the passover meal with the apostles and some of his disciples in the upper room.
