Why do some people not believe in the resurrection of Jesus?
In the earliest manuscripts of Mark's Gospel, there was no mention of any appearances of the resurrected Jesus. The Gospel finished at verse 16:8, with the women fleeing in fear and telling no one that the tomb was empty. What is called the "Long Ending" (there was also a "Short Ending") was added much later by an interpolator.
Scholars now know that the authors of the other New Testament gospels relied on Mark's Gospel for everything they knew about the life and mission of Jesus. Yet each one described the risen Jesus as meeting the disciples at different times and places, with remarkably little consistency. It strains belief that evangelists knew nothing about the life of Jesus before his resurrection, copying what the knew from Mark, yet could tell us in detail about the resurrected Jesus. And it strains belief even more, that each account differs fundamentally from the others, yet all are true.
People who do not believe in the resurrection of Jesus do so because there is no credible evidence that it really happened.
What was served in Jesus' last supper?
You get somewhat of a clue when Jesus gives the disciples communion. They had wine and unleavened bread (without yeast).
As this was a Passover Seder meal observance, the following would have been served, as a minimum:
Matzah - unleavened bread.
Wine
Maror and Chazeret - two sorts of various bitter herbs....possibilities include lettuce, endive, pepper grass,or watercress.
Karpas - a vegetable dipped in salt water and vinegar.
Z'roar - roasted lamb shank.
Who happened after the Last Supper?
lots of things, they sang a hymn( Matthew 26:30) Jesus went to the garden of Gethsemane and prayed for a few hours(Matthew 26:39). But while He was praying, his disciples fell asleep( Matthew 26:40). Then the leaders of the land came to take him to Pontius Pilate(governor of Judea), then to Herod(measly little king of Galilee) , then back Pilate. The people wanted to crucify Jesus, but Pilate knew that he was a righteous "man" so he got the worst prisoner out of jail and gave the people their choice, Jesus or the worst guy in the country, and the people chose the worst guy. Then Jesus was crucified and rose from the dead three days later. the story may seem far fetched to you, but there were at least 500 witnesses that saw Him after he rose from the dead. You can say that maybe he was not really dead but the Bible says that he did`t even look human because he was all bloody and all the flesh was peeled off his body.
What is the art movement of the painting the Last Supper?
Are you talking about Leonardo da Vinci? How shall I know? You should always mention the artist when asking about a picture. Especially in this case. The last supper is a very important scene in the Bible and has been painted by hundreds of artists during the centuries. If you mean Leonardo's mural painting it is an epoch-making work which has got a very important place in the history of art.
What did Jesus pray for at the Last Supper for his disciples?
John chapter 13-17 give a detailed description of what Jesus said during the Last Supper. Matthew, Mark, and Luke do not go into as much detail.
John 14:9 (KJV) Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
John 16:5 (KJV) But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
John 16:19 (KJV) Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye inquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?
John 16:31 (KJV) Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
In what city did the last supper take place?
The last supper was held in the upper room.two disciples were told to follow a lady with a pitcher of water i, in the city , and then ask the master of the house for the room the lord wants.
Who owned the house of the Last Supper?
The owner of the home in which the "Last Supper" was served belonged to a man whom Jesu knew. This man was obviously a person of certain wealth since he owned a home that contained a second floor.
“Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.’ “
Onlyone man can fit this description-Joseph Mathius, better known as Joseph ben Matityahu (Biblical Hebrew: יוסף בן מתתיהו, Yosef ben Matityahu. This man was probably related to Jesus, a cousin, perhaps. The Gospel of Luke ascribes to Joseph Ben Matityahu as the model for which Jesus, as a child, reads from the Holy Scriptures at the age of 12 rather than 13, quite possibly as the Bar Mitzvah of Jesus.

How much money is a portrait of the last supper worth?
Depends which one you mean. Leonardo's is the most famous, and it's painted on a monastery wall and therefore totally and permanently unsaleable. So the answer is either 'priceless' or 'valueless'.
Does the Bible say that Jesus did eat meat?
yes it does. but he was wrong as God forbids the eating of pork and no man is above him...
whoever said that the new testament says that you can eat pork can you please tell me in what book/chapter/verse you found this on.
Another Answer:
The New Testament doesn't contain the statement, "You can eat pork." However, it does teach that all distinctions between "clean" and "unclean" foods were done away with. Some pertinent references:
Mark 7:18, 19 - So He [Jesus] said to them, "Are you thus without understanding also? Do you not perceive that whatever enters a man from outside cannot defile him, because it does not enter his heart but his stomach, and is eliminated, thus purifying all foods?"
Also see the account of Peter's vision in Acts 10:9-16, noting what he was told in verse 15: "What God has cleansed you must not call common."
And in 1 Timothy 4:1-3, Paul refers to the requirement to "abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth" as a "doctrine of demons," then writes in verse 4 and 5: For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
Another View:
In Acts 10 (the most common scripture used as an excuse to eat pork) Peter travels to meet Cornelius. On his way he stops on a housetop to pray. He became very hungry and would have eaten but fell into a trance. He sees a vision of all sorts of animals and wild beasts creepy crawlies, etc. God tells him "Rise, Peter, kill, and eat" Peter says he has never eaten anything common or unclean. God basically gives permission to eat food of the gentiles "common". (What God has cleansed, that call not thou common) God never made reference in this passage to Peter's statement of unclean (which would be pigs and other animals with split hooves)... He never said He blessed unclean. He blessed common. Also, it goes on around verse 28 to say that it was unlawful for a Jew to keep company or come unto one of another nation and the vision was God's way of showing Peter that he should not call any man common or unclean. It was in reference to Peter being a Jew and his travels and company in the land of the gentiles. The vision had absolutely nothing to do with pork. Sorry to disappoint.
Did Judas Iscariot participate in the last supper?
Yes he did. The books of Matthew Mark Luke and John are where you can find the description of the Last Supper.
What does the pope do on Maundy Thursday?
The institution of the Eucharist as the central rite of the church, and Jesus' commandment that his disciples "love one another". The latin for "commandment" is "mandatum" from which the name "Maundy" Thursday is derived.
What did Jesus want to teach his disciples at the last supper?
Matthew 26: 21: And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. 22And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?
23And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me. 24The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.
25Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.
26And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. 27And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
what about the old testament?
What did Jesus eat at the last supper?
This is actually a fascinating question.
It's hard to say exactly what Jesus may have eaten, but if you look at the typical diet in the 1st century, you can get a pretty good idea.
Breakfast would have been a light meal perhaps of bread and cheese.
What are some biblical allusions of the last supper in literature and film?
The gospels of the New Testament.
Because, though the actual 'Last Supper' described in scripture included just Christ and his apostles(Mark 14:17/Matthew 26:20/Luke 22:7-14), Veronese followed his usual format and included many extra people, including 'comic dwarves', pagan German soldiers, someone picking his teeth with a fork, a servant with a bloody nose from some 'accident', and several animals...or as Veronese himself said "figures of my own invention". He was ordered to remove the dog and replace it with Mary Madelene, to which he objected. Then finally he was just told to remove all the inappropriate characters within three months. Instead, he just changed the name.

Was Mary magdalene in the last supper painting?
No, all the Gospel accounts tell us that Jesus sat down with the twelve disciples. There is no evidence to suggest that any one else was present.
What is the spiritual meaning of the last supper?
The last super means that the bread and wine stand for the flesh and the blood of christ that would be shed at Calvary for all mankind. And we must take the comunion as often as we can in christs rememberance.
Andrew in the bible, comes in the new testament, he was the brother of Peter and like Peter was a disciple of Jesus Christ. It was Andrew who found a boy with 5 barley loaves and two fishes, in the feeding of the 5,000.
Who are the disciples in the last supper?
Strictly speaking the '12' are called 'apostles' as the word 'disciple' is used of anyone who follows Jesus whether in the 12 or not.
We are not told the exact number of apostles present at the last supper as there may well have been others along with the 12 (like John Mark, Mary Magdalene, Mary and Martha and Lazarus and others). But if we concentrate on the 12 apostles alone then these would be:
Simon (who is also called Peter)
his brother Andrew
James son of Zebedee,
his brother John
Philip
Bartholomew (also called Nathaniel)
Thomas (called Dydimus - 'the twin')
Matthew (also called Levi)
James son of Alphaeus
Thaddaeus (sometimes called Jude or Judas)
Simon the Zealot
Judas Iscariot
Who sits in the center of the table in the picture the Last Supper?
In the popular paintings of this religious event, Jesus Christ is in the middle amongst 11 disciples. In actuality, Judas was not present after betraying Jesus, so two figures at the table would have had to share the middle spot since there were exactly 12 figures on that night in history.
How did Judas betray Jesus at the last supper?
Judas left the supper early in order to meet with the Jewish authorities to lead them to where Jesus was so they could arrest Him. Judas showed them whom Jesus was by kissing Him in salutation as was the custom of the day.
The last supper Jesus had with his disciples before his crucifixion was a celebration of?
It was the Passover - a memorial of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, "our Passover," which made possible the forgiveness of sins - by human blood we all have sinned and by human blood we all are forgiven:
1 Corinthians 5:7New King James Version (NKJV) 7 Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us.
