And dip with me his bread.
Who dips with me,
The same is he.”
LESSON XXXIV.
THE LAST SUPPER—PART III.
Matthew, xxvi. 26-36. John, xiv. 1-4; xviii. 1-3.
After supper Jesus took some bread and broke it in little bits, and gave a piece to each of the disciples, and said, This is my body: I am going to die: eat this, and think of me.
Then Jesus poured some wine into a cup, and told them all to drink out of it. He said, This is my blood; I shall soon bleed and die; drink this, and think of me.
Jesus said, I shall not eat supper with you again before I die. I am going to my Father; I must leave you, but I shall come back again.
Then they all sang a hymn.
Afterward Jesus got up from the table and went down stairs into the street, and the disciples followed him. It was dark; but Jesus talked to them as they went along. He said, I am going to die to-night, and you will all leave me.
