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.”

“24:1 The Lord moved David against Israel. For reasons not given, God was angry with the people of Israel. The chronicler records that Satan incited David to number the people (1 Chr. 21:1). Here it is said that God was the instigator. No contradiction exists. As in all situations, God is in control, and there is a difference between what God causes and what He allows. He did not prevent David from carrying out the evil action that Satan had suggested. In this whole chapter, the taking of a census seems wrong. Numbering the people also led to a plague (Ex. 30:12). Other men of the ancient world held similar views. Joab and the captains of the army recognized the dangers in such an undertaking (2 Sam. 24:4). The census may have been connected with David’s plans for building the temple, his main project at the end of his life. David may have wished to reorganize the systems of taxation, military service, and forced labor throughout the kingdom. However, numbering the people showed a proud spirit, a desire to measure his own greatness. It also indicated an attitude of self-sufficiency. David was putting his trust in human means, and forgetting that victories and achievements come from the Lord.” (The Woman’s Study Bible—NEW KING JAMES VERSION—THOMAS NELSON—Since 1798)
Have a blessed Monday beloved of YESHUA CHRIST JESUS. Amen. Sincerely: Mr. and Mrs. Timothy M. and Linda Shephard. Amen.
