Protestant commentaries fumblingly explain away that verse, saying that "altar" really means "cross" and "eat" is, uh, metaphor for ... um, er, "believe" ... yeah, that's it.

But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom."

No metaphor, just future glory. And definitely no need to turn back into Jews. No pepper shakers on sticks, no tall hats.

??? I have no idea what you're connecting in that verse with Hebrews 13:10.

Huh?
