The Bread and the Cup

26-29 During the meal, Jesus took and blessed the bread, broke it, and gave it to his disciples:

Take, eat.
This is my body.

Taking the cup and thanking God, he gave it to them:

“I’ll not be drinking wine from this cup again until that new day when I’ll drink with you in the kingdom of my Father.”
