Last Supper
gospel · 30 · Cenacle
On the night before his death Jesus kept the Passover meal with the Twelve — the Last Supper of the gospels — instituting the eucharist that every church of this dataset's lines has celebrated since.
The Last Supper is the final meal that, in the Gospel accounts, Jesus shared with his apostles in Jerusalem before his crucifixion. The Last Supper is commemorated by Christians especially on Holy Thursday. The Last Supper provides the scriptural basis for the Eucharist, also known as "Holy Communion" or "The Lord's Supper". Jesus having a final meal with his disciples is almost beyond dispute among scholars, and belongs to the framework of the narrative of Jesus' life.
