PSALM 118 - JESUS RECITED IT AT THE LAST SUPPER BEFORE CRUCIFIXION: At the Last Supper Jesus recited Psalm 118 which states that he would suffer but would not die: Psalm 118:17-18 17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord. 18 The Lord hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death. Psalm 118 was read by Jesus at the Last Supper and was a foreshadowing of his crucifixion. It is the last of these psalms – 118 – which Matthew and Mark refer to. All Christian scholars who have studied this matter over the centuries - numerous men of the Westminster Assembly, John Owen, Matthew Henry, Jonathan Edwards, David Brown, Alexander Hodge, John Broadus of Southern Seminary, to name but a few – are agreed that Psalm 118 is the hymn of these passages. The most striking aspects of Psalm 118 are its numerous verses which relate directly to what Jesus was about to experience. He knew full well what lay ahead of Him as He left the upper room with the disciples. puritanboard/.../lord-jesus-sings-psalm.../
