Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
-
At this the Jews there began to grumble about him because he said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.”
-
I am the bread of life.
-
But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which anyone may eat and not die.
-
I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”
-
This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.”

Jesus Predicts His Betrayal
“I am not referring to all of you; I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfill this passage of Scripture: ‘He who shared my bread has turned against me.’
-
Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish.” Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
-
As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.”
-
As soon as Judas had taken the bread, he went out. And it was night.
-
When they landed, they saw a fire of burning coals there with fish on it, and some bread.
-
Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and did the same with the fish.

The Fellowship of the Believers
They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.
-
Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts,
-
When he saw that this met with approval among the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This happened during the Festival of Unleavened Bread.
-
But we sailed from Philippi after the Festival of Unleavened Bread, and five days later joined the others at Troas, where we stayed seven days.

Eutychus Raised From the Dead at Troas
On the first day of the week we came together to break bread. Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight.
-
Then he went upstairs again and broke bread and ate. After talking until daylight, he left.
-
After he said this, he took some bread and gave thanks to God in front of them all. Then he broke it and began to eat.
-
Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old bread leavened with malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
-
Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?
-
For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread,
-
For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
-
So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.
-
Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup.
