The Last Supper is the final meal that Jesus shared with his Apostles in Jerusalem before his crucifixion. It is there that He instituted the Eucharist, also known as “Holy Communion”, “The Lord’s Supper” and “The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.” Most scholars agree that the Last Supper was a Passover Seder.

Understanding the Passover Seder can help shed light on the importance of Jesus words and deeds at the Last Supper.
