When did Brunozetti paint the Lord's Supper?
Asked by Wiki User
Answer:
On the web several firms are advertizing prints by 'Brunozetti'. However nowhere is any information about this painter to be found. One print, different from most of the ones for sale, is examined closer, and it is a paraphrase on Leonardo's last supper. This rules out the possibility of a painter in the 13th century. Whatever, he is not a well-known painter, listed in any encyclopedic work or art history.

Was Jesus last supper with apostles or disciples?
Asked by Wiki User
The last meal Jesus spent with his Apostles is called the Last Supper, consisting of only bread and wine. Jesus said a blessing, saying that the bread was the bread of life, and the wine was Jesus' blood. If you go to a Catholic mass, there will be something called a communion, where you take the blessed bread and wine and drink it.

Why were Jesus and his Apostles gathered at the Last Supper?
Asked by Wiki User
According to the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke), Jesus was crucified the day after the Passover feast. Since Jesus and the disciples were themselves Jews, they sat down to a Passover feast on the evening before his crucifixion; this was the Last Supper.
According to John's Gospel, Jesus was actually crucified on the day of the Passover feast, so John does not report the Last Supper. Instead, this Gospel reports Jesus washing the feet of the disciples.
AnswerThe Passover meal was significant to the Jews because of their covenant with God. A covenant means a solemn and binding agreement. In the Old Testament God made several covenants with humanity: the covenant of Abraham as an example, where God promised him, despite his advancing years, that he would be the father of a whole nation. But the Passover was the great covenant between God, Moses and the israelites, as they made their escape from slavery in Egypt. The Passing Over (Pass-over) of a disease that caused the Egyptian's first born children to perish, did not affect the Jews at all. Therefore they saw this deliverance as God's great covenant between them (his 'chosen' people) and himself. That he would be their God and Saviour, and one day, in a New Covenant, would send the Messiah - who would save all people for all time.However, in the Last Supper, Jesus makes it very clear just what is happening; instead of commemorating God's old covenant, he is here instituting God's promised New Covenant.
"And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me." In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you."[Luke 22 19-21]
Thus, in the Last Supper, Jesus is instituting God's New Covenant between, not just the jews, but all people and God. In his death, resurrection and ascension, the new covenant was sealed - a new covenant which superceded the old one.Therefore for Christians, the last Supper is a very significant event that underlines just who Jesus is - the promised Messiah and Saviour of all, and, because of this, this scene is re-enacted at the mass or Communion service as Jesus commanded - in rememberance of him.
In the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) the Last Supper meal is described in detail, with the focus being placed on the New Covenant between God and humanity. However, in John's Gospel, focus lies elsewhere, as John was less concerned with the Jewish Covenant, and more concerned with the real nature of Jesus - so much that he contributes several chapters of his book to the last hours of Jesus life on earth whereas the other synoptics deal with the matter in a few verses. In John, the Last Supper dwells more on Jesus washing his disciples' feet - but is there nevertheless:
"The evening meal was being served, and the devil had already prompted Judas Iscariot, son of Simon, to betray Jesus. Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him."
... When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned to his place.... {When questioned about his betrayer}, Jesus answered, "It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish." Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, son of Simon. As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him.
"What you are about to do, do quickly," Jesus told him, but no one at the meal understood why Jesus said this to him.
[John 13: 2-5, 12, 26-28]
Was fish served at the last supper?
Asked by Wiki User
No. At the Last Supper, also commonly called The Last Passover, Jesus and his apostles celebrated a yearly event that Jews and Israelites had celebrated since the day they were release from slavery to Egypt in the 1500's BCE. This yearly memorial, called the passover, was instituted in Exodus chapter 12, and there God commanded the Israelites to take a sheep (or goat) to sacrifice. The Israelites continued in this tradition down to Jesus' day.
What happened at The Last Supper?
Asked by Wiki User
The Last Supper refers to the gathering of Jesus and his disciples just before he was arrested and taken to Pontius Pilot for sentencing. There are many paintings of the event with Jesus seated at a long table with the disciples seated on either side. This was the dinner where he told them to drink the wine that it was his blood; and to eat the bread that it was his flesh. This is the basis for communion in many Christian ceremonies.
Where can you find The Last Supper?
Asked by Wiki User
The original painting of the Last Supper(Leonardo da Vinci) is in the Santa Maria delle Grazie church in Milan, Italy. It is a fresco, which means it was painted into the fresh plaster of the church's wall, and thus can never be removed. It is in very poor condition though it has been restored repeatedly over the years. It is also difficult to visit because many more people want to see it than can be accommodated. (Tickets can be obtained on-line even from abroad; it would be wise to do so in advance if you are planning a trip to Italy.) I am attaching a link to a 360 degree view of the church so you can have a virtual tour in the meantime!

Jesus said that Peter would deny Him three times before the cock crows and Peter replied that he would never deny Him. I am pretty sure that is how it went.
What were the names of the people in the last supper?
Asked by Wiki User
The 12 Men were the 12 Disciples. The man seated next to Jesus depicted in the famous Last Supper painting is John (not John the Baptist) son of Zebedee, the author of the Book of John and the three Epistles of John. John and James (a/k/a James the Greater), son of Zebedee and another disciple, were brothers. Peter, who some consider to be Jesus' strongest follower because he would take immediate action on whatever Jesus requested and who had a brother named Andrew who was a disciple as well. Andrew previously alerted Peter of Christs' arrival. Matthew the author of the Book of Matthew; Philip (not much said about him); Bartholomew; James, son of Alphaeus (a/k/a James the Lesser), Thomas, the disciple who did not believe that Jesus had risen from the dead. Thaddeus, Simon the Zealot (not Simon Peter) and Judas Iscariot (the betrayer of Jesus) Note: After Jesus' resurrection, Matthias was the replacement for Judas Iscariot since he had hung himself.
Addition
Well done the first answerer. May I just point out one unimportant thing and that is that even though the twelve were disciples they were in fact Apostles for each were ordained by Christ to the Prieshood thereby giving each the authority to go and preach the gosple.

What kind of bread was to be eaten by the Israelit es at the last supper?
Asked by Wiki User
The Israelis do not celebrate the last supper. The Jews celebrate Passover. At Passover, they set an extra place at the table for an unexpected guest. It will have a glass of wine. There will be a piece of unleavened bread or Matzoh. It is hard as a rock. At least it is thin. If you have a Jewish friend or know a Jewish family, you will be welcome if you drop in for the Passover meal. You may use the empty chair and join the Passover meal. It might be the only time of the year you are welcome to drop in unannounced and eat.
