17After taking the cup, He gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves. 18For I tell you that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God comes.”

1	1 Corinthians 11:23–29	For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed, took bread, and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes. Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. Each one must examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.

Luke 22:19 Summary

In this verse, Jesus is taking the bread and using it to represent His own body, which He will soon give up on the cross for our sins. He is asking His followers to remember and celebrate His sacrifice for them, just as we remember and celebrate important events in our own lives. This is a powerful symbol of God's love for us, as seen in John 3:16, and it reminds us of the sacrifice that Jesus made for us. By observing the Lord's Supper, we can remember and honor Jesus' sacrifice, and be reminded of His love and presence in our lives, as seen in 1 Corinthians 11:23-26.

Gill's Exposition on Luke 22:19

And he took bread and gave thanks,.... Or blessed it, as in Matthew 26:26.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Luke 22:19

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. And he took bread, and gave thanks (see the note at Mark 6:41).

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Luke 22:19

Trapp's Commentary on Luke 22:19

19 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. Ver. 19. See Matthew 26:26; Mark 14:22.

Ellicott's Commentary on Luke 22:19

(19, 20) He took bread, and gave thanks.—See Notes on Matthew 26:26-28; Mark 14:22-25. The other two reports give “He blessed,” instead of “He gave thanks.” There is, of course, no real difference between them. Thanksgiving and blessing both entered into what we may call the Jewish “Grace,” and were so far convertible terms. It is noticeable that St. Paul’s account, in 1 Corinthians 11:23, agrees on this point with St. Luke’s. Which is given for you.—Literally, which is now in the act of being given. The sacrifice was already inchoate in will. St. Paul’s report omits the participle. This do in remembrance of me.—Literally, as My memorial, or, as your memorial of Me. The words are common to St. Luke and St. Paul, but are not found in the other two reports. The word for “remembrance” occurs, in the New Testament, only here and in Hebrews 10:3. In the Greek version of the Old Testament it is applied to the shew-bread (Leviticus 24:7), to the blowing of trumpets (Numbers 10:10), in the titles of Psa 38:1 (“to bring to remembrance,”) and Psalms 70:1. The word had thus acquired the associations connected with a religious memorial, and might be applied to a sacrifice as commemorative, though it did not in itself involve the idea of sacrificing. The fact that our Lord and His disciples had been eating of a sacrifice which was also a memorial, gives a special force to the words thus used. In time to come, they were to remember Him as having given Himself, sacrificed Himself, for them, and this was to be the memorial in which memory was to express itself, and by which it was to be quickened. It may be noted that the early Liturgies, as a rule, follow St. Luke’s report, attaching the word “memorial” sometimes to the bread, sometimes to the cup, sometimes to both.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Luke 22:19

Verse 19. Took bread] See the nature and design of the Lord's Supper explained in Clarke's notes on Matthew 26:26-29. This do in remembrance of me.] That the Jews, in eating the passover, did it to represent the sufferings of the Messiah, as evident from the tract Pesachim, fol. 119, quoted by Schoettgen. Why do we call this the great hallel? (i.e. the hymn composed of several psalms, which they sung after the paschal supper.) Ans. Because in it these five things are contained: 1. The exodus from Egypt. 2. The dividing of the Red Sea. 3. The promulgation of the law. 4. The resurrection of the dead. And, 5. The sufferings of the Messiah. The first is referred to, Psalms 114:1, When Israel went out of Egypt, c. The second in Psalms 114:3, The sea saw it and fled. The third in Psalms 114:4, The mountains skipped like rams, &c. The fourth in Psalms 116:9, I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living. The fifth in Psalms 115:1, Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory for thy mercy and thy truth's sake. See Clarke on Matthew 26:30.

Cambridge Bible on Luke 22:19

19. he took bread] The account in St Luke closely agrees with that given by St Paul (1 Corinthians 11:23-26), which he ‘received from the Lord.’This is my body] Comp. “I am the door,” John 10:7. “That rock was Christ,” 1 Corinthians 10:4. “The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?” 1 Corinthians 10:16. All the fierce theological debates between Roman Catholics, Lutherans, Zuinglians, Calvinists, &c. might have been avoided if men had borne in mind the warning of Jesus, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life,” John 6:63.in remembrance of me] The emphasis is on the latter words. The Christian Passover was no more to be in remembrance of the deliverance from Egypt, but of that far greater deliverance wrought by Christ.
