At the Last Supper on Holy Thursday, Our Blessed Lord was celebrating the Passover Supper. When He took the Third Cup of Blessing (there are four cups of wine drunk at a Passover), He instituted the Most Holy Eucharist by proclaiming the Bread to be His Body, and the Wine to be His Blood. The Institution Narratives are in the three synoptic Gospels, Matthew 26:17-29, Mark 14:12-25, Luke 22:14-20. In St. John's Gospel, there is no institution narrative, but the entire sixth chapter of his Gospel is all about the Eucharist.
