Paragraph 2. JESUS DIED CRUCIFIED
610
Jesus gave the supreme expression of his free offering of himself at the meal
shared with the twelve Apostles “on the night he was
betrayed”.429 On the eve of his Passion, while still free, Jesus
transformed this Last Supper with the apostles into the memorial of his
voluntary offering to the Father for the salvation of men: “This is my
body which is given for you.” “This is my blood of the covenant,
which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.”430
