I personally see no reason to “update” or change the traditional Jewish seder meal.

After all, Jesus himself had it as his last meal.

Well, Jesus did add a little something to the end of it.

He revealed at that last passover that the meal was actually about HIM ...It was a celebration of the passover, and He was the true passover lamb

Jesus himself changed the meaning of the Seder meal. He took the unleavened bread, broke it, and said "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me." He took the Passover cup, and said "This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."

So, if Christ show Christina the meaning behind the meal in regards to the New Covenant, I don't think that it is an issue for Christians to celebrate the Seder in this fashion.

I have celebrated seder for a few years now.....

I HIGHLY recommend anyone having the chance to experience a seder to do so...

it is a profound and moving experience, let alone the knowledge and history....

I better understand the how precious it is to be adopted or grafted into God’s family through Jesus...

I have a richer and deeper appreciation for the Jewish people and their faith....

Their history is MY Family history....

Thank you Jesus for your great sacrifice....

There is an empty place set with a glass of wine at Hebrerw Seder meals. It is reserved for Elijah ... who traditions says will come to usher in the messianic age.

When the NT says:

Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

he took THE cup.
