As we enter into Holy Week, there are many different events in the last week of Jesus’ earthly life that are foundational to our witness as Christians.
We begin with Palm Sunday and the honoring of Jesus as Messiah as he rides into Jerusalem on a donkey.
We end with Jesus’ crucifixion by the hands of the Jewish authorities and the Roman government.
All that happens in between these two events reflects what it means to be a follower of Christ.
Our passage today is one such event - the Last Supper.
This event has been depicted in art and culture for centuries.
When we think of Jesus’ last supper with his disciples our minds go to the image of Leonardo Da Vinci’s famous fresco painting on the wall of the dining room in a former convent in Milan, Italy.
But the last supper is a lasting part of the church.
All that happens around that table lead to what happens immediately after and point to a greater event that will happen in the future.
All of this is within the context of the Passover meal that would have been observed by many that same night in Jerusalem.
