Luke 22:19
King James Version
28 Jul 2026
“And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.”
ἄρτος
The most basic human need. You cannot go long without bread. Jesus takes the most fundamental hunger every human knows and says: I am the answer to that. I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger. Not never want things — never be left empty at the deepest level.
