Bread Quote by Anonymous
““disciples. He brought the twelve of them together in a large room in a house in Jerusalem. They sat down to have a seder—the Passover meal—together. It was to be Jesus’s Last Supper. According to the Gospel of Mark, as they ate, Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me.” The disciples were shocked. Who would betray Jesus? Each said, “Surely, not I?” Jesus insisted that “It is one of the twelve.” He did not say who. He did not seem angry. Jesus blessed the bread and the wine, and the seder continued. At the end of the seder, Jesus said, “I will never again drink of the fruit of the vine”—by that he meant wine—“until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.” He knew that his enemies were gathering. He knew he would die soon. Afterward, Jesus and the disciples left the room and went to the Mount of Olives. There Jesus gave them another warning. He””
