(The Last supper)- It is where they pass out a piece of cracker and a sip of
wine or grape juice and everyone eats and drinks. Every
year on Passover the Jews have a traditional meal called the Seder. The holiday
meal runs through the story of Moses and the Red Sea depicted by the movie “the
10 Commandments with Charlton Heston. In the dinner there are several toasts
done with a glass of wine and all the food is representative of something
spiritual or historical that God has done. The Last Supper was a Seder meal.
Jesus was narrating the meal and when he got to a part where there are 3
crackers the middle one is supposed to be broken he said “This is my body
broken for you….” When he got to the last toast he said “This is my blood that
was shed…..” Originally Christians would celebrate with the entire meal but
over time it was shortened down to just the bread and cup part which is
referenced in the bible.
