The Last Supper
So Peter and John went on, and found everything just as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
When the time came, Jesus took his place at table, and the Apostles with him.
“I have most earnestly wished,” he said, “to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. For I tell you that I shall not eat it again, until it has had its fulfilment in the Kingdom of God.”
Then, on receiving a cup, after saying the thanksgiving, he said:
“Take this and share it among you. For I tell you that I shall not, after to-day, drink of the juice of the grape, till the Kingdom of God has come.”
Then Jesus took some bread, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke it and gave to them, with the words:
“This is my body, [which is now to be given on your behalf. Do this in memory of me.”
And in the same way with the cup, after supper, saying:
“This cup is the New Covenant made by my blood which is being poured out on your behalf.] Yet seel the hand of the man that is betraying me is beside me upon the table! True, the Son of Man is passing, by the way ordained for him, yet alas for that man by whom he is being betrayed! ” Then they began questioning one another which of them it could be that was going to do this.

The Holy Of Holies
In ancient Jerusalem the Holy of Holies in the center of the Temple was so sacred that it could not be entered by anyone but the High Priest and by him only once a year. The Home is in reality God’s Holy of Holies in which He means for His priest and priestess, father and mother, to officiate day and night.
