Lesson 5196

 (Lesson 5196)(04-27-26) Matthew 26:26-30 

   “And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.” 

 

    Today’s quote relates that, during the Passover meal, Jesus took bread and wine, blessed and identified them as his body and his blood of the New Testament shed for many for the remission of sins. Jesus declared he would not drink the fruit of the vine again until he drank it new with them in his Father's kingdom before they sang a hymn and departed for the mount of Olives and Judas’ betrayal of Jesus. ~
