thursday = = The Last Supper was the last meal that Jesus had with his disciples. It was on Thursday, the evening before he was crucified, a Friday which is celebrated by Christians as Good Friday. Jesus had to be crucified on Friday because Saturday was Passover and they knew there would be riots if Jesus was crucified on Passover.
The Jewish calendar has days starting at nightfall and proceeding to the next evening.In the synoptic gospels, , the Passover was on Friday on the year of the crucifixion. The Last Supper was the Feast of the Passover, which occurred on Thursday evening and therefore in the Jewish calendar just as Friday began.

That's why communion wafers are unleavened.
In the Synoptic Gospels, the Passover feast was celebrated after sundown on the Thursday evening, as the new day (Friday) began in the Jewish calendar, and this was the occasion of the Last Supper. The crucifixion took place later the same day - the day of the Passover.In John's Gospel, Jesus' crucifixion took place on the day of preparation for the Passover, and Jesus symbolised the sacrificial lamb whose legs could not be broken.
