Context of Mark 14:22
20And He replied, “It is one of the twelve [disciples], one who is dipping bread in the bowl with Me. 21For the Son of Man goes [to the cross] just as it is written [in Scripture] of Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.” While they were eating, Jesus took bread and blessed it [giving thanks and praise], and He broke it, and gave it to them and said, “Take it. This is My body.” 23And when He had taken a cup [of wine] and given thanks, He gave it to them, and they all drank from it. 24And He said to them, “This is My blood of the [new] covenant, [My blood] which is being poured out for many [for the forgiveness of sins].
