"This is my body, which is broken for you..."; a sign of Christ's broken body, and so fit food for faith to feed upon. By it is signified, that the sufferings Christ endured in His body, were in the room and stead of His people, to make satisfaction of divine justice for their sins. Since He, the Passover-Lamb, is sacrificed for them, they have great encouragement to keep the feast, to eat the broken bread, and to do this, as they are directed, in remembrance of Christ's body being given a sacrifice for them, and its being broken, by the hand of divine justice, in their room and stead, Luke 22:19; 1 Cor. 11:24.
