What did Jesus intend when he spoke the words, "This is my body"?
The Lost Supper argues that Jesus' words and actions at the Last
Supper presupposed an already-existing Passover ritual in which the
messiah was represented by a piece of bread: Jesus was not
instituting new symbolism, but using an existing symbol to speak
about himself. Drawing on both second temple and early Rabbinic
sources, Matthew Colvin places Jesus' words in the Upper Room
within the context of historically attested Jewish thought about
Passover. The result is a new perspective on the Eucharist: a
credible first-century Jewish way of thinking about the Last Supper
and Lord's Supper - and a sacramentology that is also at work in
the letters of the apostle Paul. Such a perspective gives us the
historical standpoint to correct Christian assumptions, past and
present, about how the Eucharist works and how we ought to
celebrate it.
