• PER310 The last meal before the crucifixion

    This article explores Jesus’ “last meal,” highlighting his institution of the Lord’s Supper. It takes place on Thursday evening before the crucifixion, in the house of Mary in Jerusalem. The Gospels record this meal as symbolically significant, with Judas leaving to betray him. The meal is crucial to Christian identity.

    John 21.9-13 (King James Version) :
    As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.
