Synopsis
Explore how the Last Supper is understood through sacrificial language and biblical context.
This nonfiction work investigates what Jesus’ words, “This is My Body” and “This is My Blood,” may have meant to the Apostles. It weighs ancient ideas about covenants, sacrifices, and shared meals to clarify how early readers could grasp these phrases.
Two short sections frame the discussion with careful analysis and clear argument. The author contrasts Old Testament sacrifice practices with New Testament language to illuminate how the meal and the blessing of bread and wine relate to a larger spiritual meaning.
- How the phrases might reflect Old Testament sacrificial imagery and common meals.
- How different Gospel accounts handle the Bread and Wine versus other lessons, like the feet washing.
- The role of blood, covenant language, and the idea of a sacrificial Lamb in interpretation.
- Where scholarly view points converge or diverge to explain the meaning for early Christians.
Ideal for readers of biblical studies and religious history seeking a careful, text‑based look at the Last Supper’s significance.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the Scriptural references to the Last Supper, particularly in relation to the institution of Holy Communion. It begins by noting the absence of universal agreement on what exactly was served at the meal and at what point in relation to the meal Jesus instituted Communion. The author argues the Passover likely was not eaten that night and examines the various accounts of the institution, noting the discrepancies among the Gospels and between the Gospels and 1 Corinthians. The author offers interpretations of what Jesus meant when he used the phrases "This is my body" and "This is my blood," suggesting Jesus was not asking his followers to think of the substances literally but to understand he was giving them his very self to consume.
