Romans 3:21 But now apart from the norm, the justice of the Almĭghty is made visible, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, 22 that is, the justice of the Almĭghty, through the faithfulness of Yĕshūa, the Mĕssiah, unto all those confirming their faithfulness, because there is no distinction, 23 because all have sinned and are falling short of the glory of the Almĭghty, 24 having justice administered without deserving it, by his lovingkindness through the redemption which is in Mĕssiah Yĕshūa, 25 whom the Almĭghty set forth as a wiping away through faithfulness, by his blood, to show his justice, because he overlooked the iniquities that occurred previously, 26 according to the mercy of the Almĭghty, for a demonstration of his justice in the present time, that he should be just and the one administering justice, which is from the faithfulness of Yĕshūa.
Is this cup, the cup of redemption, found within the Passover seder? IS the cost of redemption the life [blood]?
Yeshua sees Himself being foretold within the services, within the laws, and prophesied. He lifts up the cup that night and said "This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you." "this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me." It would be the first cup mentioned that night. Most agree that the first cup is the Kiddush, which means sanctification. With this cup, we begin the Passover seder.
Thus He gave more meaning to the Passover Seder cup... especially the cup of redemption... He also said that He will not drink again until He returns. The history of the cup when looking through the bible has been a theme but not a directive. The cup is often used as a symbol of God's judgment, the cup of fury, the cup of judgment, the cup of trembling and the cup of horror and desolation. But I think Yeshua connected Himself with
Ps 116:13 I will take up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord
By calling the cup "the new covenant in my blood," Yeshua makes a direct reference to the promise of Jeremiah 31 where God had declared that He would make a new covenant because the previous covenant had become "broken".
To violate a covenant agreement with God would surely incur His wrath and judgment, a terrible cup but instead, Yeshua promised a new covenant of grace and salvation. He would drink the terrible cup. So the symbol of the cup carries with it pictures of both wrath and redemption, of judgment and blessing. Yeshua drank the bitter cup that night at Gethsemane.
Matthew 26:42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
The second cup is called the cup of plagues and sometimes is thought of in combination with hallel [also Elijah cup] because some believe that we praise God for the plagues He used to make the break from Egypt happen.
Messiah Ben Joseph story of redemption is also found in the story of Joseph and the cup hidden brings the truth out for redemption and reconciliation. Joseph's plan of His own silver cup, brought accusations, and indictment. It was a symbol of judgment, death. When Messiah Ben Joseph revealed himself upon hearing the heart felt confessions, it became the occasion for redemption and forgiveness. It is the same today, in understanding, Yeshua can help us break from spiritual Egypt, and we praise Him. It is a hard one to swallow, but the healing comes from it.
The third cup is referred to as either the cup of redemption or the cup of blessing. Yeshua will be drinking with us again.
Matthew 26:29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
