But instead of offering lambs, in the New Testament we offer bread and wine. Instead of the priest and victim being separate beings, today, they are one. Why? Why did God wish to have a sacrifice done this way? Why did Christ institute the Mass at the Last Supper, before His Sacrifice? We will look at the Last Supper and the Passion from a theological, historical, and anthropological perspective. We will see that Jesus knew full well what any first-century Jew would have known: when it came to the Passover, you did not only have to kill the lamb; to fulfill God\u2019s law, to be saved from death, you had to eat the lamb.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/10e122f9-bd7d-4e8a-a819-0d6ed7be3f2c/0VNR9OphdwZj9dXvPnmldwI3.jpg"}
