1 Corinthians 11:25
11:25 a After supper might suggest that the main meal separated the breaking of the bread from the drinking of the cup (see Luke 22:20 b).• The new covenant is God’s promise to forgive sins because of the sacrificial death of Jesus (cp. Jer 31:31-34 c; 32:40 d; Luke 22:20 e; Heb 7:22 f; 8:8-10 g; 9:15 h; 10:12-18 i; 12:24 j; 13:20 k). The blood of a sacrifice confirmed an agreement or covenant (see Exod 24:8 l; Zech 9:11 m; Heb 9:12 n; 13:20 o; cp. Rom 3:25 p; 5:9 q).
