The Gospel According to Matthew: Communion - Then and Now

Communion, as observed in Churches and in some Messianic Assemblies today, has become a part of service where the congregants participate in a sacrament involving eating a piece of cracker or wafer and sipping a small cup of juice or wine symbolic of the Last Supper of Christ or Messiah.  

Webster’s Dictionary defines communion as a Christian sacrament in which consecrated bread and wine are consumed as memorials of Christ's death, or as symbols for the realization of a spiritual union between Christ and the communicant, or as the body and blood of Christ. The sacrament is that which is believed to have been ordained by Christ and that is held to be a means of divine grace or to be a sign or symbol of a spiritual reality.  

• Is communion, as observed today, what Messiah intended when He shared His last supper with His disciples on the night He was betrayed?  
• Is the observance of communion today how the disciples understood what Yeshua meant then, and therefore to be practiced until He returns?  
• What did Yeshua do and how was it understood and practiced by His disciples in their day?  

These and other pertinent questions will be addressed in this teaching to help us get an understanding of how communion was interpreted then and how we should interpret communion now.
