  Joachim Jeremias (1900–1979) was a German Lutheran New Testament scholar. He studied the parables of Jesus, the words of institution of the Lord's Supper, and Jesus' use of the address "Abba," and he exerted a lasting influence on the interpretation of the parables.

• Matthew 26:26–28Bible Verses

  Matthew 26:26–28 records the words Jesus spoke at the Last Supper when he broke bread and said, "Take, eat; this is my body," and then gave the cup, saying, "For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." These are the words of institution of the Lord's Supper, and no passage has divided the church more deeply over the meaning of Communion.

• 1 Corinthians 11:20-26Bible Verses

  In this passage, Paul rebukes the Corinthian church because rich and poor members were divided at the Lord's Supper, and he hands on Jesus' words instituting the Supper. It is read at communion services in nearly every denomination and is a central text in debates over the meaning of the Lord's Supper.

• 1 Corinthians 11:27–29Bible Verses

  This passage teaches that whoever eats the bread and drinks the cup of the Lord "unworthily" is guilty of the body and blood of the Lord, and it calls believers to examine themselves and to discern "the Lord's body." It is the scriptural basis for self-examination before Communion, and eucharistic theologies diverge over what "the body" refers to.
