Bible Study 14 Abib Lords Supper

[for_his_glory]

Paul gives directions regarding the Lord’s Supper in 1Corinthians 11:23-29. Some have misunderstood verse 26, which says: "As often as ye eat this bread and drink this cup," and interpret it to say "take it as often as you please" But it does not say that!

It says "as often" as we observe it, "ye do show the LORD’S DEATH till He come." And Jesus commanded, "This do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me." (Verse 25.) We do it in remembrance of THE LORD’S DEATH - a memorial of His death. And memorials of momentous occasions always are observed annually, once a year, on the ANNIVERSARY of the event they commemorate.

Jesus instituted this New Testament ordinance on the eve of His death. It was the 14th Abib, March/April Hebrew Lunar calendar. He was our Passover, sacrificed for us and He was sacrificed on the same exact day of the year that the Passover lambs always had been slain! As the Old Testament Passover commemorated Israel’s deliverance from Egypt, a type of sin, so the New Testament Lord’s Supper is a continuation of the Passover with different emblems commemorates Jesus' death, and our deliverance from sin. Immediately after the last Supper, Jesus and His disciples went out to Gethsemane, where, later that night, Judas Iscariot led the bloodthirsty mob who seized Jesus, and led him away to be crucified during the daylight part of the same 14th day of the month of Abib.

Is there any reason why the last supper could not have been on the 13th?

I agree. Similarly, the memorial of his resurrection on Abib 16 should remembered on Abib 16 once a year which just happened to fall on a Sunday the year resurrected. There is nothing special about Sunday week after week, but Abib 16 each year is very special.

As the Old Testament Passover commemorated Israel’s deliverance from Egypt, a type of sin, so the New Testament Lord’s Supper is a continuation of the Passover with different emblems commemorates Jesus' death, and our deliverance from sin.

The exodus, a type of our deliverance from sin, began on Abib15. The blood of the Passover lambs, shed on the afternoon of Abib 14, protected Israel's firstborn from death. The "Lord's Supper" took place on the evening of Abib 14.

 

[JohnDB]

What exactly do you think that the Lord's Supper symbolises?

 

[jocor]

The cup symbolizes Yeshua's blood; the blood of the New Covenant, the blood that protects us from death, the blood through which our sins are remitted. The bread symbolizes Yeshua's body; the bread from heaven, the bread broken for us that we may live eternally edited

Nothing about a wedding?
Nothing about an antidote and reversal of the fruit that Adam and Eve ate?

I can quote liturgy that the pastor recites too.

But what it represents in real world visual terms (common to ALL of Jesus' lessons) is what I was thinking about.

 

[Rollo Tamasi]

Is there some reason why you are calling this month Abib instead of Nisan?

I just looked it up and answered my own question.

Mat 26:1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto his disciples,
Mat 26:2 Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
Mat 26:3 Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
Mat 26:4 And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.
Mat 26:5 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people.

The first Passover is described in Exodus 12 as the first month was Abib/March according to the Jewish Lunar Calendar. Passover always falls on the 15th day of Nisan/April 2, Exodus 12:6, which begins Thursday after sundown and ends Friday at sundown. Nisan15 fell on April 3, A.D.33.

April 2 Nisan 14 Thursday (Wednesday nightfall to Thursday nightfall) Day of Passover preparation - Last Supper
April 3 Nisan 15 Friday (Thursday nightfall to Friday nightfall) Passover; Feast of Unleavened Bread begins - Crucifixion
April 4 Nisan 16 Saturday (Friday nightfall to Saturday nightfall) Sabbath
April 5 Nisan 17 Sunday (Saturday nightfall to Sunday nightfall) First day of the week - Resurrection

On Thursday evening Jesus ate a Passover meal with His disciples, being the "Last Supper" where Jesus announced that one of His twelve would betray Him. Mark 14,15. Jesus was crucified on the day of preparation for the Passover on Friday April 3 A.D. 33 about the third hour of the morning and gave up the Ghost about the ninth hour being 3:00PM Friday afternoon.

What exactly do you think that the Lord's Supper symbolises?

The life, death and resurrection of Christ wherein is our salvation through His body broken for us (bread) as he was beaten so badly he was almost unrecognizable and his shed blood from the scourging he endured for his love for us is the (cup) as they drank symbolic wine and not his actual blood).

Mat 26:26 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.
Mat 26:27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
Mat 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
Mat 26:29 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.

This is the Jewish Lunar Calendar used from Exodus 12:1 as being the first day and used in the time of Christ. This one actually depicts when Jesus was born, but that is another topic.

You might want to graph this out because there appear to me to be contradictions in your proposed timeline.

As the Old Testament Passover commemorated Israel’s deliverance from Egypt, a type of sin, so the New Testament Lord’s Supper is a continuation of the Passover with different emblems commemorates Jesus' death, and our deliverance from sin.

The exodus, a type of our deliverance from sin, began on Abib15. The blood of the Passover lambs, shed on the afternoon of Abib 14, protected Israel's firstborn from death. The "Lord's Supper" took place on the evening of Abib 14.

Deliverance from slavery to Egypt, deliverance from slavery to sin.

I agree. Similarly, the memorial of his resurrection on Abib 16 should remembered on Abib 16 once a year which just happened to fall on a Sunday the year resurrected. There is nothing special about Sunday week after week, but Abib 16 each year is very special.

I don't agree, Jocor.
Lev 23:11 then he hath waved the sheaf before Jehovah for your acceptance; on the morrow of the sabbath doth the priest wave it.

Lev 23:15 `And ye have numbered to you from the morrow of the sabbath, from the day of your bringing in the sheaf of the wave-offering: they are seven perfect sabbaths;
Lev 23:16 unto the morrow of the seventh sabbath ye do number fifty days, and ye have brought near a new present to Jehovah;

The only Sabbaths that count to seven Sabbaths during Weeks are the 7th day Sabbaths. On the morrow of the seventh Sabbath would always be the 8th day, the first day of the week. Therefore, Pentecost always falls on Sunday, the 8th day.
We know the significance of the 8th day.

Do you have a link to these charts? If so I would really like to have it. Thanks.

Could you point out your contradictions so I can go research them as this is already graphed out in Exodus Chapter 12 using the Hebrew Lunar Calendar which is different then our Gregorian calendar we use today.

I have a question about the chart of the priestly temple duties. Why doesn't it show the Feast of Tabernacles?

I found them on http://biblelight.net/sukkoth.htm when I was researching the birth of Jesus.

Was Jesus crucified on the day of preparation which you identify as Nisan 14?
Or was Jesus crucified on Nisan 15 as you indicate above?

for_his_glory, never mind I think I know why.

Hope you can read this. This chart shows the Feast of Tabernacles.
