Luke 2218 the Last Supper with Jesus - In Reply on Luke 22:18 - 4 years ago
The commentary:
Wesley's Notes for Luke 22:18
22:16 For I will not eat thereof any more - That is, it will be the last I shall eat with you before I die. The kingdom of God did not properly commence till his resurrection. Then was fulfilled what was typified by the passover.
22:17 And he took the cup - That cup which used to be brought at the beginning of the paschal solemnity, and said, Take this and divide it among yourselves; for I will not drink - As if he had said, Do not expect me to drink of it: I will drink no more before I die.
22:19 And he took bread - Namely, some time after, when supper was ended, wherein they had eaten the paschal lamb. This is my body - As he had just now celebrated the paschal supper, which was called the passover, so in like figurative language, he calls this bread his body. And this circumstance of itself was sufficient to prevent any mistake, as if this bread was his real body, any more than the paschal lamb was really the passover.
22:20 This cup is the New Testament - Here is an undeniable figure, whereby the cup is put for the wine in the cup. And this is called, The New Testament in Christ's blood, which could not possibly mean, that it was the New Testament itself, but only the seal of it, and the sign of that blood which was shed to confirm it.
I will surely check into that. I thought that Jesus was at a dinner with the Pharisees-in which Mary Magdalene rushed in to show gratitude by washing Jesus's feet in tears and anointing them with expensive ointment. Jesus was arrested the next evening. By dawn He was ordered to be whipped 40 lashes.
You didn't respond to my specifi question all you did was send me the subsequent scriptures to Luke 22 vs 18. Please respond interms of yes or no. Was it wine or not that was in the cup in Luke 22 vs 18?
He used wine to represent the blood of Gods Lamb in the instituting of the New Covenant. After Jesus died on the Cross, the Veil (which is Huge) was torn from top to bottom, signifying that the death of the sacrifice, The Lamb of God; that God had provided, was completed. The New Covenant was in force. The Old Covenant had passed away: was torn in half.
The Blood of Jesus RATIFIES the Covenant.
You can slowly read the Covenant that God performed with Abraham in Genesis 15
This is the Covenant that gives Modern Day Israel, the Deed to the Land of Israel.
It's not recorded in a Courthouse. It is recorded in the Bible; and has been there for thousands of years.
It's a legal covenant and the entire planet knows this. That's why they plot and try to force Israel to sign it away: in the 2 State Solution. You should track the progress of that on JerusalemPost on the internet every day.
The whole world is come against Israel settling and building on land that God has clearly given them!! The Palestinians KNOW that land belongs to Israel. Peace in return for breaking Covenant with God. That's what Satan wants. He thinks he will have defeated God if he can make that happen.
Look how small Israel is. It's tiny. Ask yourself WHY is it necessary for the World to go after Israel for this land? It's a heavenly war! It's A COVENANT that GOD ratified HIMSELF.
Jesus paid IN FULL WITH HIS OWN BLOOD to secure ALL SOULS who would come to God for salvation: For GOD so loved the world: John 3:15-18
I'm going to say it cause no one else wants to: Joe Biden has said to news media, that he intends to push the 2 State Solution, or cut ties with Israel.
"Blessed is the Nation who Blesses Israel."
If he does that, then the USA is going to suffer even more than it is now. Then we'll have a bulls-eye drawn into our backs.
Everyone must hurry, change your mind now, Be Born Again NOW! Get your loved ones saved ASAP. Wake up. Quit listening to national news!!
Interesting point you make explains why through hurricane katrina the usa residents to get relief had to support israel even now with trump they have to sign they support israel for covid_19 payments and why trump made jerusalem the capitol of israel,so your point on israel makes some sense
There are more than a few born again believers that believe that it is much later than we tend to think in the Book of Revelation. The same believe that the virgins with oil in their lamps are ready for the Bridegroom when he comes.
Revelation 22:20
He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly, Amen.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
Revelation 3:11
Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man may take your crown.

Wesley refers to the day Christ died as the day of Passover.
The day of the "Last Supper" was not the day of Passover, but the day BEFORE Passover, also called the "Preparation Day"
John 19:14
"And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!"
To understand the timeline, it must be understood that a Hebrew day begins at SUNSET.
I'll write later on it.
God bless
