Hi Pilgrim,<br><br>My point in bringing up the issue about unleavened bread being used in the Passover is that we can't know for sure one way or another whether the element is specifically intended for the Lord's Supper by looking to the first institution by Christ. If we infer the preference of unleavened bread because it was used at the Last Supper, how far and how consistently should we apply this? Should we also prefer to celebrate the Supper at twilight? What prescriptions do we borrow from the Passover without being arbitrary?<br><br><blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr>[color:"blue"] Are you suggesting: .... that there is no symbolic or typological meaning in unleaven bread . . .</font><hr></blockquote><p><br><br>I think this is a stronger point, and may also be strengthened by 1 Corinthians 5:8, "Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth." Though he is not specifically addressing the Lord's Supper here, there is a repeated principle connecting leaven with sin, and there still may be a secondary allusion here to the feast of the New Covenant, though nothing that could be pressed strongly.<br><br>Personally, my preference has been to use whatever kind of bread is ordinarilly eaten as bread, but I've not really fleshed out the arguments from both sides, which is why I asked.
