Notes
Jesus ate the Passover meal with his disciples and followed the ritual order of the Passover celebration (see study note on Matthew 26:26–29).
Jesus celebrated the traditional Jewish Passover but transformed it with reference to his own sacrificial death as the Passover lamb. He also prepared his disciples for his coming death and the leadership role they would assume over his church.
