and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and

took some bread and blessed it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the
disciples, saying, “Take this and eat it, for this is my body.”

Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his
disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.”

eating, Jesus having taken the bread, and having blessed, did brake, and was
giving to the disciples, and said, 'Take, eat, this is my body;'
d. Amplified Bible Classic: Now as
they were eating, Jesus took bread and, [e]praising God, gave thanks and asked
Him to bless it to their use, and when He had broken it, He gave it to the disciples
and said, Take, eat; this is My body.
e. Worrell Translation: And, as
they were eating, Jesus, taking a loaf and blessing it, broke it, and giving to
His disciples, said, “Take, eat, this is My body.”

1). The seriousness of taking
communion in an unworthy state are given to us by the Apostle Paul. There are
two schools of thought regarding this passage. The first declares if we take
communion in an unworthy state it could result in sickness and death, and we
are being judged for doing so. The second school of thought believes that by
taking communion in right relationship with God and discerning what the death
and resurrection of Christ includes as to the benefits He won for us we can
appropriate healing for our physical bodies and our whole being, and if we don’t
receive communion knowing and believing all that he accomplished for us many
believers are sick and die needlessly. Frankly I believe both are true.
a). 1 Corinthians 11:23-31 For I
have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord
Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:nd when he had given
thanks, he brake it,
11:24 And said, Take, eat: this is
my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
11:25 After the same manner also
he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the new testament in
my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
11:26 For as often as ye eat this
bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
11:27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat
this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the
body and blood of the Lord.
11:28 But let a man examine
himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
11:29 For he that eateth and
drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning
the Lord's body.
11:30 For this cause many are weak
and sickly among you, and many sleep.
11:31 For if we would judge
ourselves, we should not be judged.
