Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 22:14-20

142. The Lord’s Supper instituted (Matthew 26:26-30; Mark 14:22-26; Luke 22:14-20)By the time of Jesus, the Jewish Passover had developed into a set form with a number of added procedures. Among the additions was a cup of wine, for which the head of the household offered a prayer of thanks (or blessing; cf. 1 Corinthians 10:16).

Luke 22:19. This do, &c.— From our Lord's words here recorded, and from those wherewith the apostle has concluded his account of the sacrament, 1 Corinthians 11:26. (—for as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come,— καταγγελλετε, ye preach,—ye declare the Lord's death, ye assure the world of the truth of it,)—it appears that the sacrament of the supper was instituted, not only to bring Christ's sufferings, and the happy consequences thereof,... read more

Matthew 26:26-29; Mark 14:22-25; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26)Luke’s account stresses Jesus’ linking of His self-giving with the bread and His giving Himself for the disciples specifically, instead of for the "many" generally (Matthew 26:28; Mark 14:24; cf. Jeremiah 31:31-34; Jeremiah 32:37-40).
