Text: Mark 14:22-25 (ESV)
22 And as they were eating, he took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to them, and said, “Take; this is my body.” 23 And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, and they all drank of it. 24 And he said to them, “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many. 25 Truly, I say to you, I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.”
THE LORD’S SUPPER
Jesus had a simple meal of lamb, unleavened bread, and bitter herbs with His disciples as they observed the Passover. And, as they were eating, Jesus took the bread to introduce the Lord’s Supper covenant. He "broke" the bread because it is baked in a large, flat disk.
Earlier, Jesus has compared Himself to bread that His followers must eat (John 6). He explained that He is the bread of life. This symbolism has always been difficult to understand. When Jesus told the people that they needed to "eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood" (see John 6:53), many of His followers abandoned Him (see John 6:66). Apparently, Jesus is not advocating cannibalism here. Jesus is speaking in a metaphor (John 6:63). When God sent manna to the Israelites in the wilderness, it kept them alive for a time, but eventually they all died. But, those who "eat" the bread of life that Jesus has offered will never die. If we take the spiritual life Jesus offers, our spirits will live.
Then, Jesus took the cup, blessed it, and passed it around. He and the disciples drink from one cup. To drink from someone's cup is to accept a deep relationship with them. As the cup of wine represents Jesus' blood, they identify with Him in a stronger way than they realize when they drink it. It means accepting the work of Jesus on the cross, taking it into themselves, changing their hearts.
In the Old Testament, the Israelites covered their door-posts and lintels with the blood of the Passover lamb. The ‘angel’ passed over the homes marked with blood and left them unscathed while the firstborns of the houses of the Egyptians died (Exodus 12:1–32). In the same manner, the impact of spiritual death will "pass over" to anyone who accepts Jesus' blood. There is no more blood needed to be shed for forgiveness from God for Jesus’ blood is sufficient(Hebrews 7:27).
Wine is drunk during a celebration (see Psalm 104:14–15). Jesus promises to drink wine again in a time and place suitable for celebration. Most likely this will be at the marriage supper of the Lamb (Rev 19:7–10) wherein Jesus and all believers will celebrate His victory in glory.
