Luke 22:7-23

In this beautiful passage, we see Jesus expressing his affection for his follows. He "earnestly desired" to have the last supper with them, and it was finally time. During the meal, Jesus showed how the passover that happened during Israel's time in Egypt was actually a precursor to his death and resurrection on behalf of his people--to save them from experiencing the death they deserve. Last, Jesus promises that he and his followers will have another communion meal together when his kingdom comes in fullness.
