There is a lot of controversy over the week leading up to the crucifixion. And the controversies will persist long after our flesh has failed. But there are many things we can know with certainty. Jesus told his disciples to prepare for the Passover meal, and he gave them specific instructions. Regardless of the day of the week or the precise year, we can be confident that Jesus treated his last meal before his death as the Passover meal.
Jack and John dive into the traditions of Passover to discuss what the "last" supper may have been like. As you listen, imagine yourself preparing to remember the Exodus and the miracles of God's provision for his people who trusted that their belief and obedience would save them. Imagine what Jesus thought as he broke the unleavened bread, tasted the bitter herbs, and drank the wine. What did the disciples think? Why could they not piece everything together? John the Baptist had called Jesus the Lamb of God. The Father himself had spoken, "This is my Beloved Son." And Jesus had told them exactly what was going to happen. He was going to be tried before the religious leaders, and he would be murdered, but they still missed it until after his resurrection and appearance.
It's a lot to think about.
