Episode 27 - This is our Passover episode. Here, we take a few moments to remember what just happened, from Sunday to Wednesday: the Pharisees, Mary of Bethany, and the 30 pieces of silver.

We also remember the origins of Passover--freedom from bondage through the sacrifice of the innocent lamb, the blood smeared on the doorposts of God-trusting families.

And then, the Thursday evening Passover meal.

Jesus, Prophet, Priest and King, breaks with tradition as He washes not only the hands, but the feet of His guests.

The bread, unleavened and bruised and pierced. Broken in three pieces, the middle piece hidden, and then found in childlike faith, only to be celebrated with great joy by sharing it with all. These were, and still are, the Passover rituals taught and followed for hundreds of years before Jesus came.

The cup of redemption, cup of remembrance of the Passover blood of the lamb on the doorways, cup of the wedding covenant.

Jesus, the Bridegroom come for His bride.
