Jesus did some wonderful things in his life.

His last meals included unleavened bread and wine.

That shows how wonderful Jesus is.

But what else happened that fateful night?

Here are the top 20 fun facts about Last Supper.

The name tell everythings.

This dinner is when the first Eucharist occurs.

While attending the Eucharist (or receiving communion), Jesus takes the bread from the table, breaks it in half (or nearly half), and asks the disciples to take it and eat it.

The bread represents the body of Christ.

After taking the bread, Jesus took the wine from the table and told his disciples to drink.

The wine represents the blood of Jesus.

The Last Supper was indeed foretold in the Old Testament.

The Last Supper of Jesus is so important, Leonardo da Vinci depicted this scene in his famous painting titled The Last Supper.

The painting itself is huge.

It is interesting to note that there are three groups in the picture that can represent the Trinity.

The picture itself has a terrible shape.

The Last Supper is told in all four gospels, but there is another story about dinner in John.

One theory is that the reason for this discrepancy is because they may have used different calendars.

To make things even more confusing, Jesus may have used a different calendar than the rest.

A few other problems have occurred at that table.

What is even more amazing is that during the meal, in a normal voice, Jesus said that someone would betray him that night.

After dinner, Jesus went to Gethsemane to pray and asked God not to experience his crucifixion.

What is the Passover?

The Passover explains why there is wine on the Last Supper table.

When he went to the garden to pray, Jesus told his disciples to stay up and watch for an hour.
