| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to another special edition of The Scriptures Are Real and our joint broadcast with Cultural Hall. |
| 0:14.7 | We're grateful for Richie Stedman for allowing us to participate this way with him. |
| 0:19.8 | This is one of those special editions where we're talking |
| 0:23.1 | about the Holy Week, and in particular, today is Holy Thursday, a very, very significant day, |
| 0:29.5 | also called Mondi Thursday. You can hear the word for commandment in there. It's about the new, |
| 0:35.8 | that it's gotten that name because of the new commandment, when the says, new commandment I give unto you that as I have loved you, |
| 0:41.2 | you love one another. And so this is a very significant day for all of Christendom, but probably |
| 0:48.8 | more for us than it is for many. I'm joined with Andrew Skinner or by Andrew Skinner and so happy to have you |
| 0:58.3 | welcome Andy and then why don't you kind of start us out as we talk about this wonderful day. |
| 1:06.5 | Thank you so much, Kerry. I just have to say that it's a privilege to be associated with you and to talk about the things that matter most to all of us. So thanks. As you said, Monday Thursday, and it's spelled M-A-U-N-D-Y. I remember first hearing about it in college. |
| 1:27.9 | I couldn't figure out why they were saying Monday Thursday, |
| 1:30.9 | but it's Monday Thursday from the Latin word for commandment, mandatum. |
| 1:36.2 | So anyway, Monday Thursday of Holy Week observances and most Christian denominations |
| 1:43.5 | commemorates the last supper, Jesus washing |
| 1:47.6 | the disciples' feet, and then Jesus' last teachings to the assembled disciples after the last |
| 1:54.8 | supper, especially the commandment that you made reference to, wherein Jesus says, a new commandment I give unto you, that you love one another as I have loved you. |
| 2:04.6 | So this idea of commandment then to love is front and center in the title, |
| 2:11.6 | Monday, Thursday. |
| 2:13.6 | And for me, the essence of the Last Supper is, in fact, the transformation of the Passover meal, which Jewish people had been celebrating for the last 13 or 1400 years, depending on when you date the Exodus. |
| 2:32.8 | And it's transformed into the sacrament of the Lord's Supper. |
| 2:39.8 | And it, that is to say, the sacrament along with baptism by water and by fire, are the first |
| 2:48.3 | and most fundamental ordinances that link us as disciples to the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. |
