The Lord’s Supper
Last Sunday we had the privilege to partake of the most sacred ordinance of the Church: the Lord’s Supper.
The Lord’s Supper is a reenactment of the Last Supper, which was Christ’s last supper before His crucifixion.
Jesus had one last meal before He died the death which we ought to have died.
The Mount of Olives
As they are on their way to the Mount of Olives, we see another exchange between Christ and His disciples, Judas among them.
“I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered” is a reference to Zechariah 13:7-9
What Jesus is saying is that a time of tribulation was coming, and in this tribulation the wheat will be separated from the chaff; the righteous from the wicked.
The Garden of Gethsemane
This may have been the last time they see Jesus—their Friend, their Master, their Brother—yet they did not have it in them to stay by His side.
Imagine a spouse, a parent, a sister or a brother—imagine leaving the house without saying goodbye or hanging up without saying, ‘I love you,’ and then never seeing them again.
This was surely the pain that the disciples would later feel.
Of Jesus’ twelve followers, one betrayed Him and the others abandoned him.
Strike the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered.
Jesus is Taken Away
The Sanhedrin was supposed to represent God’s heavenly court but on earth, and the Jews were supposed to be God’s people.
He was betrayed by His people, abandoned by His friends, and abused in what was supposed to be His Father’s court.
Peter Denies Jesus Three Times
While Peter was outside denying Jesus, Jesus was being prepared for death—the authorities were plotting His murder.
This was a hard time for everyone.
Remember Zechariah 13:8-9, remember the separation of the wheat from the chaff.
Judas Hangs Himself
Although the Matthew is not quite right, this is a partial fulfillment of the one-third of Zechariah.
Judas was cut off and died—his remorse was so great that he killed himself.
Jesus is Judged by Pilate
