1 Corinthians 11:26 meaning and explanation
For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.
1 Corinthians 11:26, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Paul writes to a divided Corinthian church whose shared meals had become selfish, and he reminds them of what he received from the Lord about the night Jesus was betrayed. In verse 26 he explains that the bread and cup are not merely a memorial but a proclamation: each time the church eats and drinks, it announces the Lord's death, the saving event at the center of the gospel.
