AnswerJesus said he did not come to abolish the law and the prophets but to fulfill them. This is exactly what the Last Supper is about. Instead of the meal celebrating the passover lamb being sacrificed and consumed the Last Supper celebrated the sacrifice and consumption of he Lamb of God. The New Covenant also came into force at the Last Supper and there are no more intermediaries like Moses and the prophets and God again deals personally with each one of us because the sin of Adam no longer applies.
