TTN Tyndale Theme Notes:

Jesus’ Final Night

When Jesus went into Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover, he knew it was his final night. He had come to Jerusalem to “suffer many terrible things and . . . be killed” (Mark 8:31). His disciples had prepared the meal, but he needed to prepare them for what was coming.

So Jesus celebrated the Passover with his disciples. At this meal, Jesus demonstrated true servanthood by washing his disciples’ feet (John 13:1-20). He gave his final teachings to the disciples, informed them about the coming of the Holy Spirit, and prayed for his followers (John 14:1–17:26). Jesus also established the new covenant (Mark 14:22-24). Jesus was now the Passover Lamb—his body and blood are now the sacrifice that saves his people from judgment, fulfilling the same purpose as the lamb at the first Passover.

It was on Passover that God had struck down all the firstborn males of Egypt but had spared those of Israel. Now Jesus would be struck down so that his people could be spared—just as the prophets had predicted (e.g., Zech 12:10; 13:7). Jesus warned his disciples that this was about to happen and that they were about to desert him (Mark 14:27). Jesus also warned his disciples that he would be betrayed by one of them (Mark 14:18).

After the meal, Jesus and his disciples walked to the Garden of Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives, where Jesus prayed in agony, submitting his will to the Father (Mark 14:26-42). Judas, the disciple who betrayed Jesus, then approached with a group of soldiers, who arrested Jesus (Mark 14:43-49). Jesus’ disciples fled (Mark 14:50-52), and Jesus was taken to the house of the high priest for an overnight trial, during which Peter denied Jesus three times (Mark 14:53-72).

While Jesus’ final night was marked by tragedy, nothing that happened was outside of his foreknowledge. Everything occurred according to God’s plan and was necessary in order to fulfill Scripture and to usher in the events which followed (his death and resurrection).

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-unknown

ἄρτον

bread

The term bread refers to a loaf of bread, which is a lump of flour dough that a person has shaped and baked. The bread referred to here was a flat loaf of unleavened bread that was eaten as part of the Passover meal. Alternate translation: [a loaf of unleavened bread]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

εὐλογήσας

/having/_blessed_‹it›

Here Mark could be implying that Jesus blessed: (1) God for providing the food. Alternate translation: [having blessed God] or [having praised God] (2) the food. Alternate translation: [having blessed it] or [having asked God to make it holy]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἔκλασεν

broke_‹it›

Here Matthew means that Jesus broke the bread in pieces so that it could be served to the disciples. This was a normal practice in his culture. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [he divided the bread into servings] or [he broke the bread into smaller pieces]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

λάβετε

take

Here Jesus implies that he wants the disciples to Take the pieces of bread that he gave to them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [Take these pieces of bread]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

λάβετε

take

Here Jesus implies that the disciples should eat the pieces of bread after they Take them. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [Take and eat]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

τοῦτό ἐστιν τὸ σῶμά μου

this is the body ˱of˲_me

Here Jesus identifies the bread as his body. This figure of speech has been interpreted in a number of ways. The bread could somehow become Jesus’ body, or Jesus’ body could be present in some way when people eat the bread, or the bread could represent or memorialize Jesus’ body. Because of the variety of interpretations and the significance of this metaphor, you should preserve the metaphor if there is any way to do so. If you must express the metaphor in a different way, use a form that could fit with as many of the listed interpretations as possible. Alternate translation: [This functions as my body]
