Mark 14 - This is my body
from Sabbath School From Home Hosted by Cameron and Lachlan Rogers
The Last Supper is a remarkable overlap of ritual and routine. The menu for the meal recorded in this chapter was almost certainly quite familiar everyday food for Jesus and his disciples, and yet it was also a Passover meal with deep historical and ritual significance. This same juxtaposition shows up in the various ways that Christians celebrate communion - is it the actual body of Christ, or could it be best done with a Big Mac and diet Coke? However we find the most meaning in this story and tradition, it seems clear that Jesus claiming the Passover meal as representing his own body is a vivid picture of God's gracious desire to save.
