Institution of the Lord’s Supper
23 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; 24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, [a]“Take, eat; this is My body which is [b]broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”

“2 Samuel 1:11-17
New King James Version
11 Therefore David took hold of his own clothes and tore them, and so did all the men who were with him. 12 And they mourned and wept and fasted until evening for Saul and for Jonathan his son, for the people of the Lord and for the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
13 Then David said to the young man who told him, “Where are you from?”
And he answered, “I am the son of an alien, an Amalekite.”
14 So David said to him, “How was it you were not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy the Lord’s anointed?” 15 Then David called one of the young men and said, “Go near, and execute him!” And he struck him so that he died. 16 So David said to him, “Your blood is on your own head, for your own mouth has testified against you, saying, ‘I have killed the Lord’s anointed.’ ”

“1:11-17 | David’s extreme grief at the death of the man who tried to kill him for 30 years is astonishing (Prov. 24:17), but it is consistent with David’s belief that Saul was God’s anointed (1 Sam. 24:6). Whenever there is report of one of God’s choice servants falling by the wayside in moral or physical defeat, the response should follow David’s response—not gladness, not smug complacency or a superficial piety, but sorrow for the person, sorrow for the people, and sorrow for the work of God that person had committed his or her life to do.’
‘1:16 | The Lord’s instruction to the people of Israel concerning the Amalekites was very specific (Deut. 25:17). As the king, David was responsible for carrying out God’s commands, and the first order of business was to do what God told him to do.” (THE JEREMIAH STUDY BIBLE—DR.
