Context of Luke 22:18

16I can guarantee that I won’t eat it again until it finds its fulfillment in God’s kingdom.” 17Then he took a cup and spoke a prayer of thanksgiving. He said, “Take this, and share it. I can guarantee that from now on I won’t drink this wine until God’s kingdom comes.” 19Then Jesus took bread and spoke a prayer of thanksgiving. He broke the bread, gave it to them, and said, “This is my body, which is given up for you. Do this to remember me.” 20When supper was over, he did the same with the cup. He said, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new promise made with my blood.”
