The Institution of the Eucharist (Mt 26, 26-29)

“During the meal, Jesus, having taken bread and pronounced the blessing, broke it and, giving it to the disciples, he said: 'Take, eat: this is my body. Then, having taken a cup and having given thanks, he gave it to them, saying: "Drink of it all, for this is my blood, the blood of the Covenant, shed for many in remission of sins. I tell you, from now on I will drink no more of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. "
