What is focal point of the last supper?
The theme is the last meal, the Passover meal, that Jesus shared with his disciples before being arrested.
What 'Jewish' feast day did Jesus have the Last Supper on?
Jesus fulfilled the Passover as was given to Moses as an example of His coming. For some Christians, Passover is a memorial of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, "our Passover" which made possible the forgiveness of our sins.
What do Jews sing during the Passover Seder meal?
There are a number of traditional songs with their ancient melodies. They are sung without musical instruments. These include Chad Gadya, Adir Hu, Adir Bimlukhah, Echad Mi Yodea, Dayenu, Ki Lo Yaeh, Vehi She'amdah, and a few others. The words to these are in the text of the Passover Hagadah, which recounts the Exodus. See also:More about the Passover Seder
What kind of bread was to be eaten by the Israelit es at the last supper?
The Israelis do not celebrate the last supper. The Jews celebrate Passover. At Passover, they set an extra place at the table for an unexpected guest. It will have a glass of wine. There will be a piece of unleavened bread or Matzoh. It is hard as a rock. At least it is thin. If you have a Jewish friend or know a Jewish family, you will be welcome if you drop in for the Passover meal. You may use the empty chair and join the Passover meal. It might be the only time of the year you are welcome to drop in unannounced and eat.
Was the Last Supper eaten in silence?
No, most likely the Last Supper was instituted in singing, praying, reading from the Old Testament, and talking. The Last Supper was an extension of the celebration of the Jewish Passover. During the Passover meal, as it is still eaten today, there was a lot of activity: solemnity, but also joy and festivity. Jesus used the last elements of the Passover to show that the bread and the wine were representations of His body and blood shed at the cross.
