I.D They did not atop to queslon the sanity of the command but uu true disciples obeyed. .Tesus, he(.>uw He is omniscient, knew jU|t the matter would turn out. II Tn* Pa.iover Eaten (vv. 14-18). ,Bv Whom (v. 14)? Those , who j u,t down to this last Passover feast were the Master and the Twelve Aposdes. H | g Words Unto Them (vv. 15-18). (1) “I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer.’’ How anx iotis He "as to show them the , moaning of the passion through which Ho wn« to go; also He craved their human sympathy as He passed ihrmigh this trying ordeal. (») "I will n»t any more eat thereof until it he fulfilled In the kingdom ofCml." Ilis death was the antitypi,.„l fulfillment of the passover meal. IP looked forward to that time when ihe process of redemption would have l, w n completed and a perfect union between the disciples and the Lord would he consummated. (31 ’Take this cup and divide It among yourselves.” The disciples j were now partaking of that symbol of | His Mood. He assured them that He would not again drink of the fruit of Ihe tine until the kingdom of Hod should come. Drinking anew in the kingdom does notiineSn that ln heaven this service will lie renewed, but tliaifj this was symbolic of the heavenly reality. 111. The Feast of the New Covenant Instituted (vv. 19-20). This took place at the close of the* pnsilial supper. 1 The ltread. a Symbol of Christ’s Body (v. Ift). Christ giving of Himself to them. In order to get benefit fmm physical bread It is necessary to receive It. In order to get benefit from Christ one must receive Him. 2. The Cup, a Symbol of Christ’s Blood ('. 20). This was symbolic of the atonement which was made hv the shedding of His blood on the cross. He said: "This cup is the new testament in My blond which was shed for you," indicating that each one must personally accept the atonement made by the shedding of His blood. IV. The Wicked Behaviour at the feast (vv. 21-27). 1. The Treachery of Judas (vv. 21-23). (1) The time of its manifestation (v. 21). It was while they were eating the Inst passover that Jesus made the announcement of the betrayal. Perhaps the reason why this feast «as disturbed by such an announcement was that Judas might be given an opportunity at this last moment to repent. (21 The betrayal was by tlie determinate counsel of God (v. 22 cf. Acts 2:23). Nothing takes place by chance, f.ten the evil, sinful acts of men come within the permissive providence of Cod. hut this does not lessen the guilt, (or Jesus says: “Woe unto the man by whom He is betrayed.”’ (3) Sorrowful question (v. 23). The disciples did not seem to suspect one armther, but made the question a per|inal one. 2. Selfish Ambition of the Disciples (w. 2j-27). In this tragic hour the disciples were so concerned with the thought of honorable position that they were striving among themselves as to who should be greatest. • V. The Apostles’ Place In the Kingdom (vv. 28-30). He assures them that those who with Him in His trials shall ■ appointed unto a place In the king d«m which will entitle them to cat ol| d drink at His table and sit on thrones Judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
