The Notes from the Podcast
I did a biblical studies session on the Last Supper through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is podcast episodes 288 through 295, eight episodes. I read every record chronologically from all four Gospels of every event from The Last Supper through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
To help the listener follow along, I have arranged the Scriptures in chronological order, reading from one gospel to another in each event one at a time. The Syllabus for each episode is in the Show Notes with the Podcast. The teaching can be found on the podcast and on my website, stevejaynes.com.
Jesus had two triumphant entrances into Jerusalem, where everyone loved him. He had just healed Lazarus, who had been dead for four days. Everybody in Jerusalem heard about it. The people loved him and started to follow him.
The scribes and chief priests wanted to have him destroyed, saying, “It would be better for one man to die than that we lose our place in Jerusalem.” Jesus Christ became Public Enemy Number One.
John 13:1 “Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
How would anyone act if they knew that this was going to happen next? Think about an outlaw who knew his time was up.
We see that this was not the Passover meal. The Passover had many stipulations, like the Passover Lamb having to be a male of the first year, the Passover meal being eaten standing up, and the Passover lamb being slain outside the city's gates. You can read about other stipulations in The Book of Exodus. Not to mention that Jesus Christ was our Passover Lamb a few days later.
Mark 14:17 “And in the evening he [Jesus] cometh with the twelve.”
This is the start of the new day, Monday the thirteenth of Nisan, which started at sunset.
At the Last Supper, Jesus Christ installed the memorial of the Communion, which we still have today. This is a very simple figure of speech called a metaphor, which is stronger than a simile. A simile compares two things using the words 'like’ or 'as.' A metaphor uses the word 'is,' which can be replaced by the phrase 'represents.' 'This bread represents my body,' etc.
The Passover was a memorial also to help Israel to remember what God did in getting Israel out of Egypt. They were to remember it yearly with many stipulations and things to do. We have many memorials to help us not forget, pictures, like statues, and other things to help us remember events in our country. The Communion is a memorial to help us remember. It starts with Jesus Christ at a common eating and drinking a meal commonly found at a dinner table, just like it is with us. Every meal commonly has bread and something to drink.
Luke 22:14-16 “And when the hour [the hour supper was to begin] was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.15And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: 16For I say unto you, I will not any more
