"As they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, gave it to the disciples, and said, Take and eat it; this is My body. " -Matthew 26:26 (HCSB)
A follow-up to "Believer s Baptism" in the New American Commentary Studies in Bible & Theology series, "The Lord s Supper" explores the current Baptist view of the communion sacrament. Contributors include Andreas Kostenberger ("The Lord s Supper as a Passover Meal"), Jonathan Pennington ("The Last Supper in the Gospels"), Jim Hamilton ("The Lord s Supper in Paul"), and Michael Haykin ("Communion in the Early Church"). Adding a helpful perspective, chapters are also provided on the Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Calvinist, and Zwinglian views of communion. "
