Priests

120. How is Jesus' offering expressed at the Last Supper?

610-611
621
At the Last Supper with his apostles on the eve of his passion Jesus anticipated, ie its free offering both symbolized and made ​​it really present: "This is my body which  is given  for you "( Lk  22: 19): "This is my blood which  is shed ... "( Matthew  26:28) So therefore instituted the Eucharist as "memorial" ( 1 Corinthians  11:25), slaughter and established his apostles as priests of the new alliance.
