I will drink no more, &c.— "From this instant I will no more drink of the passover-cup, nor have that commemorative and typical ordinance continued any longer in my church, than till it be suppressed and fulfilled (Luke 22:16.) by the greatsalvationwhichIshallbringintothegospel-kingdomuponmy resurrection from the dead, and which is to be afterwards commemorated by a new use of wine in the supper that I have nowinstituted; nor will I so familiarly commune with you again, as I do now in this New Testament ordinance, till we shall have the most intimate fellowship together, in the more excellent entertainments of the heavenly state; which, for their superior and always fresh delight, may in the language of a festival be called new wine." See Guyse, and the note on Matthew 26:29.
