The last supper (middle), 

The meeting of Abraham and Melchizedek and Elijah awakened by the angel (1 Kings 19:5-6) (recto right)

The Last Supper with Christ 

was the last ritual Passover Feast because the LAMB OF GOD, Christ Himself, was about to be sacrificed. 

Christ explained the meal pointed to His Death and Resurrection and should be repeated by His Disciples among them, until His Return to reign on earth. 

Passover - Easter supper- Altarpiece

 This painting shows it is an important moment, and those present seem to be reflecting on its significance. 

It is one of the key works in the history of Flemish art..

 Here, Bouts breaks with the tradition according to which Christ is always represented in the act of announcing the betrayal of Judas. Instead, he chooses to show the moment at which he institutes the Holy Communion, that is the sharing of the wine and bread among His disciples.

JESUS being Himself THE LAMB OF GOD, puts an end to the sacrifice of passover lambs, a warning of His Coming as son of Man to be punished for the sin of men. That is why He mentions in this meal that His Blood ( represented by the wine shared ) is going to be shed and His Body ( symbolised by the bread given away) is going to be broken for those that wait upon His deliverance.

The SACRIFICED LAMB is in  the centre of the First Feast of Passover back in Egypt on the Night of the Death of the Firstborns, but not of the one in Jewish homes protected by the blood of the sacrificed lamb.

The sacrificial male perfect lamb that delivered the firstborn of each house from death pointed to the Sacrificial Death of Christ in favour of all those that turn to Him for salvation of eternal death.

 

 The white table cloth is a symbol of the holiness, purity, righteousness of Christ alone.

The Sacrificial Lamb from God and John the Baptist in Civic Heraldry

O Cordeiro Sacrificial escolhido por Deus e o profeta João Baptista surgem associados em armas de municípios de vários países: Alemanha, Bélgica, Suécia, República Checa, Portugal também.

John the Baptist was a prophet who spent his time announcing that it was now the Time for the Messiah; people had consequently to repent and confess their sins as they were baptised by him on the Jordan River. Pointing at Jesus he revealed: "Ecce Agnus Dei" , a statement in Latin for: "Behold the Lamb of God" - John 1:29 ), and he added: "that takes away sin", making it clear that this lamb was not a mere sacrificial lamb, but THE Lamb that was able to renew the God-men connection.

The Pessah and the Easter Meaning ?- O Significado da Páscoa Judaica e da Cristã?

The perfect, innocent, male lamb, slain to protect the Israelis firstborns from the tenth and last plague in Egypt( death ) is a "shadow" of Jesus Christ, symbolizes the Perfect, Innocent Lamb approved from God to be sacrificed once and for all, to rescue from evil not only the firstborns, but everybody that chooses to accept the protection of the Blood of the unblemished Lamb.
O cordeiro macho, perfeito, inocente, morto para proteger os primogénitos dos Judeus da décima e última praga no Egipto ( a morte ) é um "tipo", simboliza o Cordeiro Perfeito, Inocente aprovado por Deus para, de uma vez por todas, salvar do mal não só os primogénitos, mas todos os que se coloquem sob a protecção do Sangue do Cordeiro sem falha.
That is the reason of the well known statement by John the Baptist:
" Look! This is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world." John 1: 29
É essa a razão da conhecida declaração de João Baptista:
" Olhem! Este é o Cordeiro de Deus que tira o pecado do mundo." João 1: 29

Passover/Easter - a Páscoa Judaica e Cristã

What is there in common between the Jewish and the Christian Easter?
Que existe de comum entre a Páscoa Judaica e Cristã?
A male, young, perfect, flawless lamb had to be sacrificed in order to bring deliverance to many; the blood of that lamb was a mark that kept death away from the firstborns. Um cordeiro macho, jovem, perfeito, sem falha alguma, teve de ser morto para se conseguir um meio de salvar muitos; o sangue desse cordeiro constituiu uma marca que manteve a morte afastada dos primogénitos. In the first Jewish Passover celebration ( when they were delivered from the over 4 hundred year captivity under the rule of Egypt ) the sacrificed lamb was a real lamb whose blood had to be put on their houses entrances and that the family was bound to eat together while death passed over Egypt to kill the oldest son of each family. Na primeira Páscoa Judaica ( celebração da libertação do jugo de cativeiro em que estavam há mais de 4 séculos no Egipto ), o cordeiro sacrificado era um cordeiro verdadeiro cujo sangue teve de ser colocado nas portas das suas casas e que a família teve de partilar como refeição enquanto a morte passava sobre o Egipto para matar o filho mais velho de cada família. No firstborn was killed in the houses marked by the blood of that special blood. Nenhum primogénito morreu nas casas marcadas pelo sangue daquele cordeiro especial.
In the first Christian Easter celebration ( the last supper ), short before Jesus' betrayal and crucifixion, the symbolical figure of the perfect lamb acquired a literal sense with Jesus presenting Himself as THE SACRIFICE IN FAVOUR OF ALL PEOPLE, as the God-sent-Lamb whose death defeated eternal death and managed to bring physical, emotional, spiritual deliverance to all those under the protection of His Blood.
Na primeira celebração da Páscoa Cristã ( a última ceia ), pouco antes da traição e crucificação de Jesus, a figura simbólica do cordeiro perfeito adquiriu significado literal com Jesus avançando como O SACRIFÍCIO EM FAVOR DE TODOS, como o Cordeiro-enviado-por-Deus, cuja morte conquistou a morte eterna e conseguiu libertação física, emocional, espiritual para os que se coloquem debaixo da protecção do Seu Sangue.

On the topic SUBSTITUTION,PASSOVER & EASTER-Sobre o tema SUBSTITUIÇÃO e PÁSCOA dos Judeus e dos Cristãos

What is there in common between these 3 Bible narratives: Isaac delivered from death by the lamb provided by God; The Firstborns delivered from death by the blood of the young, perfect male lamb and the Death and Resurrection of Christ? Que haverá em comum entre as seguintes 3 narrativas da Bíblia?: Isaac salvo da morte pelo cordeiro providenciado por Deus; os Primogénitos salvos da morte pelo sangue do jovem cordeiro, sem defeito algum e a Morte e Ressurreição de Jesus? That was what some young Portuguese pupils from a PRIMARY SCHOOL tried to express in illustrations. Foi isso que alguns jovens alunos portugueses, de uma ESCOLA PRIMÁRIA, procuraram expressar nalguns destes desenhos.
