1 CORINTHIANS 11:23 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:”
For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread — Paul appeals to direct apostolic transmission (paralambano/paradiдōmi) from the Lord, giving us the earliest written account of the Last Supper, predating even the Gospel accounts; the solemnity of the setting (night of betrayal) underscores the gravity of what is instituted.
