Charles Spurgeon Commentary Luke 22:7-20

"And the day of unleavened bread came, on which the passover must be sacrificed. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and make ready for us the passover, that we may eat. And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we make ready? And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house whereinto he goeth. And ye shall say unto the master of the house, The Teacher saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? And he will show you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover. And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the apostles with him. And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: for I say unto you, I shall not eat it, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. And he received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: for I say unto you, I shall not drink from henceforth of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and gave to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. And the cup in like manner after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, [even] that which is poured out for you." — Luke 22:7-20 (ASV)

Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the Passover must be killed. And He sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat." And they said to Him, "Where do You want us to prepare?" And He said to them, "Behold, when you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he enters in.

And you shall say to the good man of the house, 'The Master says to you, "Where is the guest room, where I shall eat the Passover with My disciples?"' And he will show you a large upper room furnished; there make ready." And they went and found it as He had said to them; and they made the Passover ready. And when the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him.

And He said to them, "With desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. For I say to you, I will not eat of it again until it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God." And He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, "Take this and divide it among yourselves; for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the Kingdom of God comes." And He took bread, and gave thanks, and broke it, and gave to them, saying, "This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new testament— (Or, covenant—)
