Well, since I am an adult and a believer priest I will stand before God on my understanding of his word. I'll let others use the papal decoder ring.

But the context was a memorial meal (passover) and He instituted a memorial meal. So, I say He left the room without looking like disciples went phirana on Him... chomping on His bod and vampiring His blood.
