“Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us." (1 Corinthians 5:7, NKJV)

Paul encouraged the church not to revert back to the law-keeping bondage of Judaism, but to see that in simple beauty, the substitutionary death of Christ is declared by each element of that Last Supper. The Passover Memorial meal was in Paul’s day, and is this evening, profoundly instructive to all who will stop and see Christ portrayed.
