A Christian Sunday liturgy with a ritual re-enactment of the Last Supper dates from the earliest days of Christianity. The practice of the Apostles thus illuminates the bare words of the New Testament.

Excellent! Please direct me to the Bible verses so that I may read it for myself.

And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. And he said to them: I have desired to eat this pasch with you, before I suffer. For I say to you, that from this time I will not eat it, till it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. And having taken the chalice, he gave thanks, and said: Take, and divide it among you: For I say to you, that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, till the kingdom of God come. And taking bread, he gave thanks, and brake; and gave to them, saying: This is my body, which is given for you. Do this for a commemoration of me. In like manner the chalice also, after he had supped, saying: This is the chalice, the new testament in my blood, which shall be shed for you.

(Matthew 26:26-30; Mark 14:22-26; 1 Corinthians 11:17-34)
