where is the last supper found in the bible?
first epistle to the corinthians
the earliest known written reference to the last supper is in paul's first epistle to the corinthians (), which dates to the middle of the first century. the last supper was likely a retelling of the events of the last meal of jesus among the early christian community, and became a ritual which referred to that meal. the earliest depictions of such meals occur in the frescoes of the catacomb of rome, where figures are depicted reclining around semi-circular tables. in spite of near unanimous assent, the historicity of the evidence, one lone scholar comments that "the motif of the last supper appears neither among the paintings of the catacombs nor the sculptures on sarcophagi ... the few frescos in the catacombs representing a meal in which christ and some of the disciples participate show not the last supper but refer to the future meal promised by the exalted christ in his heavenly kingdom", seeing the subject as beginning to be depicted in the 6th century.
