The previous day had also seen what appears to have been a miraculous feeding that was associated with the sacrament. On this day, also, the Savior reinforces the sacrament, but it is presented more clearly on this day. It is interesting that on both days the sacrament is a portion of a communal meal. That was the pattern in early Christianity. The separation of the sacrament as an ordinance from the communal meal occurred later in Christianity.
