What is the origans of eucharist?

Answer 1

The whole point of having the Eucharist is because of the passover meal. so the Catholics decided to celebrate this by having a thing called "communion" now communion is another version of the Eucharist but the Eucharist involves "the blessing" upon the meal whereas the Christians just simply pass around some bread and grape juice and pray that the food and drink blesses their bodies.

During the Last Supper Jesus said, "This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me." And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which will be shed for you."

This is not only the origins, but this is when Jesus, Himself, instituted the Eucharist.
