Question about The Last Supper?
When Jesus and the twelve disciples sat down for the Last Supper, all of them including, Jesus were Jews. All of them, as far as I can tell were brought up in traditional Jewish homes, which observed the laws of the Torah. Since this group of Jewish men would have had knowledge of Kosher Laws regarding contact with blood. Why do you think that not one of them objected to being offered a cup of blood and human flesh (even symbolically). I think that the whole idea of ingesting the offered blood and body would have been anathema to them. All of the arguments about Jesus coming to change the law would not overcome a lifetime of religious training. Any ideas?
They were not offended nor did they find it objectionable because they had seen, heard, felt, and knew that Jesus was God in the flesh. They had also been present when Jesus spoke as recorded in John 6 about the body and the blood. They had seen many stop following Jesus after this pronouncement and they had been asked by Jesus will you also leave me? To which Peter replied, “Lord to whom shall we go?” They knew that the elements of the passover were representative of the offered flesh and blood that cleanses from sin and in the occasion of the Last Supper Jesus observed the normal Passover meal with two added aspects. First was the washing of the disciples feet, to which Peter objected, and was rebuffed. The second was the breaking of a last piece of bread and passing of a last cup after the main meal. And Jesus says for the second time to them this is my body, take and eat, and with the cup, this is my blood, take and drink all of you for I shall not eat or drink again until I eat it anew in my Fathers kingdom. Not one of them misunderstood, and not one of them objected because they knew it was right.
