Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 26:26-30

26-30 This ordinance of the Lord's supper is to us the passover supper, by which we commemorate a much greater deliverance than that of Israel out of Egypt. Take, eat; accept of Christ as he is offered to you; receive the atonement, approve of it, submit to his grace and his government. Meat looked upon, be the dish ever so well garnished, will not nourish; it must be fed upon: so must the doctrine of Christ. This is my body; that is, spiritually, it signifies and represents his body. We... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Matthew 26:1-99

Matthew 26 THIS CHAPTER BRINGS US back to the history of the last few days of the Lord’s life on earth. The opening verses give us a peep into the palace of the high priest, and we find it to be full of craft and counsels of murder. In verses Matthew 26.6-26.13 , we turn from this most atrocious wickedness in high places to behold an action of love and devotion in a humble home, where some of the godly remnant dwelt. From John 12.0 we gather that the woman was Mary of Bethany. She evidently... read more

Events at Gethsemane. The prophecy of the denial: v. 30. And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the Mount of Olives. v. 31. Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of Me this night; for it is written, I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. v. 32. But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee. v. 33. Peter answered and said unto Him, Though all men shall be offended because of Thee, yet will I... read more

THIRD SECTIONCHRIST THE PASCHAL LAMB, AND THE LORD’S SUPPER26:17–30(Mark 14:12-26; Luke 22:7-39; John 13:1 to John 18:1)17Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where will thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover? 18And he said, Go into the city to such a man [to a certain man, πρὸς τὸν δεῖνα], and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. 19And the disciples did... read more

Matthew THE NEW PASSOVER Mat_26:17 - Mat_26:30 . The Tuesday of Passion Week was occupied by the wonderful discourses which have furnished so many of our meditations. At its close Jesus sought retirement in Bethany, not only to soothe and prepare His spirit but to ‘hide Himself’ from the Sanhedrin. There He spent the Wednesday. Who can imagine His thoughts? While He was calmly reposing in Mary’s quiet home, the rulers determined on His arrest, but were at a loss how to effect it without a... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Matthew 26:26-35

a Self-confident Disciple Warned Matthew 26:26-35 The Passover looked back to the dread hour of the Exodus; the Supper links Calvary with the Second Advent. In partaking of it we should not confine ourselves to either retrospect or anticipation, but should endeavor to feed our souls with the very spirit and heart of our dear Lord, so as to absorb His divine strength, sweetness and love. We need to feed on His flesh and drink of His blood after a mystical fashion, so that He may become the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Matthew 26:1-75

The Lord now reverted to the theme of His coming suffering, telling the disciples with great definiteness of the time-"after two days"; and of the event-"The Son of Man is delivered up to be crucified." Meanwhile the priests and elders were assembled in secret conclave, plotting how they might secure Him in order to silence His voice by putting Him to death. Whether the story of the alabaster cruse was in chronological order is of little moment. It is a revelation of perhaps the most wonderful... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 26:20-35

The Final Passover And The Declaration Of The New Covenant (26:20-35). This second subsection is carefully patterned around the Passover meal. It commences with a warning of Jesus’ coming betrayal, describes the Passover and the establishing of the Lord’s Supper, and concludes with a warning of the coming desertion of His disciples and of Peter’s coming threefold denial. Thus the institution of the Lord’s Supper, revealing the Lord’s future provision for His own, is placed within a framework... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 26:26-30

Jesus Institutes The Lord’s Supper and Establishes The New Covenant in His Blood (26:26-30). We are so used to the Lord’s Supper that this moment can almost pass us by unmoved. It was, however, as sensational as anything within the career of Jesus. He had made many remarkable claims, as we have seen, but none more remarkable than this. For Jesus was here taking over the most precious ceremony known to the Jews, a ceremony instituted by God, centred on God and pointing to God’s great... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 26:30

‘And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the mount of Olives.’ The celebration coming towards its end it closes as usual with the Hallel (Psalms 115-118), after which they leave the city proper and return to the Mount of Olives (but still remaining within the bounds allowed during the Passover. The western slopes of the Mount of Olives would be within those bounds, Bethany itself was outside them). And thus in a few short verses Matthew has brought out the main significance of the meal.... read more
