How about “do this in remembrance of me” just as Christ instructed? In remembrance of His broken body and shed blood on the cross just as He instructed. No magical mystical changing of some cracker into something it isn’t. Just a symbolic remembrance of His broken body and shed blood

The Passover miracle pointed to Christ.. it was a "type" of Christ

The Jews were told to remember this miracle with a yearly celebration ...and so ..at the remembrance , Jesus explains that He was the fulfillment of the Passover, and now do this in remembrance of Him ..no longer the historic type ... The broken unleaven bread , was His body, the blood over the door post was His blood which would be spilled on the cross.. He was the lamb to be slayed ...all the OT pointed to Him.. every prophet, every Law, every Jewish Holiday pointed to Him

excellent!
the OT is full of types and shadows pointing to Christ.

but.......once Christ came, the need for types and shadows went away, the promised one came!

we no longer have need for types, shadows, symbols, etc.

we now can receive Christ!
