Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the EucharistSeder, beytza, kiddush, karpas, matzot, maror, zeroah, Exodus, haroset, haggadah, Symbolic Explanations: haroset - the reminder of spring karpas - the mortar the slaves used to build structures salt water - sacrifice of the Passover lamb maror - the bitterness of slavery zeroah - the tears shed over the years of slavery Complete the Sentences: Instead of sitting at the table to dine as we do today, Jesus and his disciples would recline while eating, identifying them as free men, not slaves. As the Seder Meal begins, the âmotherâ of the family blesses the kiddush, just as the altar server does before Mass actually begins. Similarities Between Seder and Mass: a) Both involve specific prayers and rituals. b) Both commemorate historical events. c) Both have symbolic foods and elements. Special Numbers and Remembrance: Four is a special number throughout the seder. There are 4 cups of wine and 4 questions. Elijah is remembered in two ways during the seder: by opening the door for him and having a special cup of wine for him. Purpose of Celebrating Seder: Jewish people celebrate a seder each year at Passover to remember and retell the story of the Israelites' liberation from slavery in Egypt. Learning about the Seder: We, as Catholics, learn about the seder to understand the connections between the Passover meal and the Last Supper. Personal Reflection: One thing I learned from this unit that was not asked on this test is the significance of the various symbolic foods in the Seder Meal and their meanings. Similarities between Passover and Easter Celebrations: Both Passover and Easter celebrate important religious events, focus on themes of renewal and rebirth, and involve special meals with symbolic foods. Differences between Passover and Easter Celebrations: Passover is a Jewish holiday commemorating the Exodus from Egypt, while Easter is a Christian holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Passover is based on the Jewish lunar calendar, while Easter is based on the Gregorian calendar. The rituals and practices associated with each holiday also differ significantly.Jesus Christ fulfilled Old Testament prophecies, and He is superior to Old Covenant. Superior means more excellent. Christ is superior to prophets, angels, leaders, priests, the practice of daily sacrifice that the priests had to carry out, the Tabernacle, and the Law. Christ is superior forever because His sacrifice is good for all time. He is permanently sitting at God's right hand in heaven, so nothing and no one can surpass His superiority. Jesus is alive in heaven, being the High Priest and the mediator of the New Covenant and praying for believers. A covenant is a promise or agreement between two people or groups. The Old Covenant refers to the promises from God that involved animal sacrifices and obedience from people. The New Covenant refers to the promise of God fulfilled through the sacrifice of Jesus and accepted by people through faith in Him. The Old Covenant was made for Abraham and the Jews and based on law; it depended on obedience and sacrifices. The New Covenant is achieved through Christ for all people; it needed only one sacrifice; and it is based on grace. The New Covenant is superior because it is for all people for all time; it gives salvation by grace through faith; and it changes people on the inside through God's indwelling power.The story of The Resurrection of Jesus is very amazing. Resurrection: meaning Jesus rising from the dead. Jesus is alive again. Jesus proved to the people that He is the âSon of Godâ. Would you like to know the amazing story? Letâs read on! Jesus is Alive! After Jesus died a man named Joseph from Arimathea put Jesus in His tomb. Before Joseph left, he and some men rolled a large heavy stone in front of the tomb. Mary and Mary Magdalene made spices and oils as a sign of respect to Jesus, and went very early to the tomb on the third day to go see Jesus' body. As they were just about at the tomb the earth suddenly shook and an angel came down from heaven. He easily rolled away the stone at the entrance of the tomb and sat on top of it. The women looked at each other and rubbed their eyes, they couldn't believe what they had seen. The angel was so bright, almost as bright as lightning. His clothes were as white as snow. There had been guards watching the tomb so no one would steal Jesus' body. When they saw the angel they fell over and they couldn't move or speak because they were so afraid. Christian Living Education 2 SEIBO COLLEGE 5 Then the angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid. I know you are looking for Jesus who has died. But He isn't here; He has risen just as He said He would! Come and see for yourself, the tomb is empty." The women were confused. How could this happen? They were sure Jesus had died, and now He was alive? They looked in the tomb and the cloths Jesus was wrapped in were lying on the ground, and the tomb was empty. Then the angel spoke again, "If you want to find Jesus He's on his way to Galilee." So the women hurried away. They had been so sad that Jesus was dead and now they were so excited He was alive! They just knew they had to find Jesus, and they had to tell the disciples the good news. As they were running down the path they turned a corner, and there was Jesus. "Greetings," He said. The ladies fell at His feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go and tell my disciples to come to Galilee, which is where they will see me." The disciples came to Galilee, and had heard by this time that Jesus was alive. They were sitting around talking about it, when Jesus walked into the room and said to them, "Peace be with you." The disciples immediately stopped talking. Even though they had heard Christian Living Education 2 SEIBO COLLEGE 6 He was alive, they were shocked to see Him standing there with them. Jesus said to them, "Why do you look at me like you've just seen a ghost? Why don't you believe what you're seeing? Look at the scars in my hands and feet. It is really me! Touch me and see, I am not a ghost but a real person." The disciplesâ mouths were open in amazement because they still didn't know what to think. They were so full of joy, and yet it was so impossible. Jesus understood what they were thinking, so He said, "This is what I told you would happen, that everything must happen that has already been written in the Bible." Then Jesus told them, "You have seen these things that have happened, so stay in the city and soon I am going to give you what God has promised you, the Holy Spirit. Jesus had one more person to see. His name was Thomas, and he was one of the disciples that werenât there when Jesus met with them. Thomas had also heard that Jesus was alive, but would not believe until he saw Jesus with his own eyes. A week later when Thomas finally saw Jesus, Jesus said to him, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Stop doubting and believe." But Jesus continued, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; but it is more amazing for those who don't see me, and believe anyway." Christian Living Education 2 SEIBO COLLEGE 7 Jesus is actually talking to us when He said this. If you believe in Him, without seeing Him He thinks you're very special! That is exactly what faith is, believing in God even though you can't see Him. When we become Christians Jesus automatically gives us the Holy Spirit to live inside of us. The Holy Spirit makes us know when we have done something wrong. We might feel sick to our stomach, or just get a bad feeling, that is the Holy Spirit reminding us that we are doing something wrong, or that we need to stop and say sorry and ask for forgiveness for what we've done. Do you know what we celebrate during Easter Sunday? We celebrate the rising of Jesus from the dead. We celebrate because Jesus shared His new life with us. Through His rising from the dead, we are saved. We also have new life. What do you think we should do with our new life? How can we thank Jesus for sharing His new life with us? Of course, we should do good deeds. When we say good deeds, it is anything that we do that is good. It doesnât matter how big or small as long as it is good. It would make Jesus very happy if we stop our bad ways and change for the betterThe nativity and Jesus as the son of GodThe 10 Apostles of Jesus and Filipino Values7th Ch. 8 "Jesus, Model of Wisdom" and The BeatitudesAccording to 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, the three key parts of the gospel message are that Christ died for the world's sins according to the Scriptures, that He was buried, and that He rose again on the third day according to the scriptures. Evangelism is the process of sharing the gospel with others. Christians should evangelize so others can have faith and salvation in Jesus Christ. Proverbs 11:30 says that it is wise to win souls. The Great Commission is Jesus' command for believers to evangelize all nations. Wherever Christians go, they are supposed to make disciples, baptize believers in the name of each Person in the Trinity, and teach about Jesus and how to live God's way. According to 2 Corinthians 5:20, Christians are ambassadors for Christ. An ambassador for Christ should be a good example through words and actions, such as inviting a friend to church, being friendly to new people, and being obedient and truthful. A witness is a person who gives evidence or proof of something he or she has seen or experienced. Christians can be a witness of Jesus by giving proof of their faith through evidence from the Bible. A Christian can give a testimony of what he or she has seen Jesus do in his or her life. Evangelism should include the following points: everyone is a sinner; a person must believe, repent, and receive eternal life; and a person must choose Jesus as Lord.
