The New Covenant - Luke 22:20

Luke 22:20 ESV 


And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.


The manna from heaven and the blood of the sacrifices in the Old Testament prepare the way for the true bread from heaven and the final sacrifice with the blood of Christ. 


They culminate in the body of Christ which rises to life in the body of each believer. The prophecy is fulfilled as the water of the old covenant changes to the wine of the new covenant.
