Lesson 3231

 (Lesson 3231)(11-07-20) Matthew 26:17-19

    “ Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover? And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.”

   Today’s quote relates that some of Jesus’ disciples were told to find and make ready the place where they, Jesus and His apostles, would observe and honor the Passover.

    It’s very important to make note that they were about to observe and fulfill an ordinance from God that was established in Exodus chapter twelve. Therein, God commanded the children of Israel to commemorate the passover by locking themselve inside their homes and eating a very special meal. The things that were to make up that meal were very specifically ordered by God Himself. 

    I want to express the importance of that because almost every “Christian” denomination now erroneously describe what Jesus and His apostles did that day as something totally different.

    We will discuss this issue further as these lessons progress.~
