Read those verses not one of them says that the wine is his blood.. it says that the cup was the blood..not the wine.. In the Ot covenants were always sealed in blood.. Jesus was sealing the New Covenant , which would take effect at His death with His blood..

[Notwithstanding]

I see.

So in Matthew 26, you think Jesus refers to the cup, not to the wine in the cup, when He says “This is my blood”?

But that trick does not work in Matthew 26 when Jesus says “Take and eat; this is my body” because there is no plate or utensil - just bread.

Amazing.
