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.

What is the difference between the synoptic accounts of the Last Supper and that of John's Gospel?
A:In the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke), the Last Supper takes place on the evening of the day of the Passover - it is the Jewish Seder feast. John's Gospel moves the chronology (eg John 19:14) so that in his crucifixion, Jesus was the sacrificial lamb of the Passover, and therefore this gospel omits the ritual Last Supper. Apart from mentioning that Jesus and the disciples had their evening meal, John replaces the Last Supper by a ritual in which Jesus washes the feet of the disciples.
