I never looked at it that way, that Jesus was simply telling them what the two elements of the Passover meal actually represented.
It’s like He was telling them *Hello! “This is my body”- The bread represents my body. “This is my blood”-the cup represents my blood. This is what’s it’s always meant and now you can understand it. This is what you’ve been celebrating and what Passover has been pointing to for years without you knowing it fully. Now I’ve just explained it to you so you can understand. Now keep doing it so you can remember what I’ve DONE for you instead of what I’m GOING to do for you.*
That is basically what I was saying..the passover was prophetic he was telling them that
Absolutely indeed.
A Messianic Jewish Rabbi sort of bloke held such a service/Sedar in Israel, with our tour group, IIRC . . . I am certain he did in San Diego but I think he did in Israel as well. Very meaningful.
