The Legal and Vital Work of Salvation Part 31: Is "The Last Supper" Even a Biblical Term?
Dr. Abel Damina
Is "the Last Supper" even a phrase you'll find in Scripture? Dr. Abel Damina says no — he distinguishes three separate things often blurred together: the Passover, an ordinary evening "supper," and the informal "breaking of bread" love-feasts described in Acts, arguing that what churches now call "Holy Communion" is, in his words, "a creation of man." This episode of Reintroducing Jesus, Beyond Religion traces the Passover meal back to Exodus 12 to show how its bread, cup, and even its unbroken bones all pointed forward to Christ.
