Dr. Brant Pitre, Jesus & the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist

In this exciting talk, Dr. Pitre shines the light of the Old Testament and ancient Judaism on the words and deeds of Jesus to reveal the amazingly Jewish roots of the Eucharist. Using his in-depth knowledge of Jewish messianic expectations, Dr. Pitre shows how the hope for a New Exodus and the coming of the Messiah proves that Jesus really did intend to give us the Eucharist, and it is nothing less than the gift of Himself, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.” unquote.

Dr. Pitre lays out the background of God and Jesus’ plans to establish the Eucharist long before he came down to earth. This video is over an hour long but is extremely important for us to gain a better understanding of this important sacrament that Jesus established during the Last Supper with His 12-Apostles the night before His excruciating death on the cross for our sins.
