near at hand that I cannot observe the Paschal Sacrifice I will therefore eat the unleavened Bread and bitter herbs this night at thy house with my Disciples Our Saviour also told them they should find every thing provided at that House Mar. XIV 15. According to his Command they came into the City and there they found every thing as he had said to them vers 16. So they made ready the Passeover Matt. XXVI 19. Mar. XIV 16. according to our Saviour's direction which was no doubt with respect to what the time would afford we have seen what that was according to Dr. Hammond's opinion and that of Grotius we shall have in the following Discourse It seems not likely that our blessed Lord would lose the benefit of his hiding himself by coming abroad while there was day-light enough to discover him Especially since there was no need of his exposing himself to any Danger on this Occasion For the Passeover was to be eaten in the night Exod. XII 8. And so Dr. Hammond expounds the Words Matt. XXVI 20. Mar. XIV 17. 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 when it was evening by those of St. Luke when the hour was come Luke XXII 14. viz. the Hour of night at which they were to eat the Passeover Then at that hour he came with the Twelve Mar. XIV to the house where all things were prepared and there at the Table he sat down Mar. XIV 17. Luk. XXII 14. and the Twelve with him Iudas not excepted There no doubt they did eat the Passeover together such as was prepar'd for them according to our Saviour's direction But whether they had a Paschal Lamb or no is a great Question It should seem they had not by those Words of St. Iohn XIII 1 2. where he says that our Saviour knowing the Hour was come that he should depart out of the World to the Father he loved his Disciples to the end and he shewed it particularly by what he sayd and did at his last eating with them That this in St. Iohn was his last will be made very plain by what he has of our Saviour's Predictions concerning Iudas his betraying and Peters denying him This last time that our Saviour did eat with his Disciples St. Iohn calls a SUPPER and not a Passeover And to make this the plainer he says it was before the Feast of the Passeover vers 1. which Words will be further consider'd in the Discourse before Daniel's Weeks But what shall we say to those Words in the three other Gospels where it is as plain that this last Supper of our Saviours is called a PASSEOVER several times by our Saviour himself and by his Disciples Especially those Words of his when he and they were eating together are thought to imply that they had a Paschal Lamb then before them with desire I have desired to eat this PASSEOVER with you before I suffer adding this reason for I say unto you I will not eat any more thereof untill it be fulfilled in the Kingdom of God Luke XXII 15 16. The like words he spoke of the fruit of the Vine that he would drink no more of it after that Supper till the Kingdom of God should come They that hold Christs Death to have been on the XIV of Nisan cannot admitt that he had a Paschal Lamb at his last Supper for the reasons already mentioned and others that will be offered in the following Discourse Therefore they take those Words of our Saviour and his Disciples where they call his last Supper a PASSEOVER as a family of Iews would understand one another if they were speaking now of a Passeover to be kept among themselves They all know there can be no Paschal Lamb now because they have no Place for a Sacrifice And then at Christ's last Supper there was no Time for it in their Opinion who believe that Christ died on the XIV of Nisan They take it that the Passeover spoken of Now could be no other than what they had the two last years in Galilee There no doubt it was onely of Unleavened bread and bitter herbs So it was now according to Dr. Hammond in those words above mentioned And this as Grotius words it was not 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 but onely 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 not a Sacrifice but a Memorial The Sacrifice of the Paschal Lamb was onely a Type of Christ's Death for which at this time there was no Occasion because Christ himself was to be slain at this Passeover But for those other things they were eaten onely in Remembrance of their Affliction in Egypt and their sudden deliverance from it and for those to be called a Passeover where there was no Lamb to be called so this is the Iews common manner of speaking at this Day And that it was anciently so Ios. Scaliger shews Emend Temp. VI. out of a Paschal Prayer of the Iews in which he observes 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 cum amaris vocari Pascha that the unleaven'd Bread together with the bitter things they eat with it are called the Passeover After this short Supper as it must be if there was no Lamb to be eaten then came the common Supper which at such Festival times used to be of better Cheer then on Ordinary days And this Supper being ended according to our Translation or after this Supper began as the Words 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 rather signify then our Saviour rose from the Table and having laid aside his upper Garments and girded himself with a Towell took Water and washed his Disciples Feet and wiped them with that Towell Ioh. XIII 4 5. Of which whole matter he † Buxtorf Exercit. de S. Coena § XXX that could very well judge of such things says it was no Paschal Rite as some understand it but it was an extraordinary Action of our Saviours to shew an extraordinary Example to his Disciples The washing of the Feet was but a common Act of kindness with which they usually treated their Guests in those hot Countrys Gen. XVIII 4. XIX 2. XXIV 32. But for one of any eminent rank to do this to them that were much his Inferiors to Servants this was such an Act of Humility as a greater could not be express'd see I Sam. XXV 41. This was it that the Apostle would have us take especial notice of what an infinite Condescension it was that He who knew he came from God and was going to God Ioh. XIII 3. was pleased to take that low Office on himself to do this to his Disciples and thereby to give them such an Example of charity and Humility as might live in them when He was gone He told them plainly that was the end of his doing it Ioh. XIII 12 17. And withall by this Bodily washing he shewed what purity of Soul is required of them that will have any Communion with him vers 8 9 10. This ought especially to be consider'd in our approaches to the Lord's Supper And it
