Context of Matthew 26:25

23Jesus answered, “Someone who has dipped his hand into the bowl with me will betray me. 24The Son of Man is going to die as the Scriptures say he will. But how horrible it will be for that person who betrays the Son of Man. It would have been better for that person if he had never been born.” Then Judas, who betrayed him, asked, “You don’t mean me, do you, Rabbi?” “Yes, I do,” Jesus replied. 26While they were eating, Jesus took bread and blessed it. He broke the bread, gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take this, and eat it. This is my body.” 27Then he took a cup and spoke a prayer of thanksgiving. He gave it to them and said, “Drink from it, all of you.
