Summary for Luke 22:7-30: 22:7-30 ^a Jesus celebrated the traditional Jewish Passover but transformed it with reference to his own sacrificial death as the Passover lamb. He also prepared his disciples for his coming death and the leadership role they would assume over his church. 22:7 ^b The Passover lamb was sacrificed at twilight, and Passover was celebrated in the evening (see Exod 12:6-8 ^c).
22:8 ^d Go and prepare the Passover meal: The lamb was roasted and eaten with bitter herbs and unleavened bread at the Passover meal (Exod 12:8 ^e; Num 9:11-12 ^f; Deut 16:3 ^g). The bitter herbs represented the bitterness of the Israelites’ slavery in Egypt, and the unleavened bread recalled their haste in leaving Egypt.
