This is My blood
In this phrase, Jesus is speaking during the Last Supper, instituting the New Covenant. The Greek word for "blood" is "αἷμα" (haima), which is used throughout the New Testament to signify life and sacrifice. Blood, in the Jewish sacrificial system, was essential for atonement (Leviticus 17:11). Here, Jesus is indicating that His blood will be the ultimate sacrifice, fulfilling and surpassing the Old Testament sacrifices. This statement is profound, as it signifies the transition from the old covenant of the law to the new covenant of grace through His impending sacrifice on the cross.

of the covenant
The term "covenant" comes from the Greek word "διαθήκη" (diathēkē), which can mean a testament or agreement. In the biblical context, a covenant is a solemn agreement between God and humanity. The Old Covenant, given through Moses, was based on the law and required the blood of animals. Jesus is declaring a New Covenant, prophesied in Jeremiah 31:31-34, which promises a new relationship with God, written on the hearts of believers, and made possible through His sacrifice. This New Covenant is foundational to Christian theology, emphasizing grace and faith over works.

which is poured out
The phrase "poured out" is translated from the Greek "ἐκχέω" (ekcheō), meaning to spill or shed. This imagery is vivid, evoking the sacrificial system where the blood of animals was poured out at the altar. Jesus' use of this term foreshadows His imminent crucifixion, where His blood would be shed for the remission of sins. It underscores the voluntary nature of His sacrifice, as He willingly offers Himself for humanity's redemption.

for many
The word "many" in Greek is "πολλῶν" (pollōn), indicating a large number but not necessarily all. This phrase echoes Isaiah 53:12, where the Suffering Servant "bore the sin of many." It highlights the inclusivity of Jesus' sacrifice, available to all who believe, yet also acknowledges the reality that not all will accept this gift. Theologically, it speaks to the doctrine of atonement, where Christ's sacrifice is sufficient for all, but effective for those who receive Him by faith. This phrase invites reflection on the vastness of God's grace and the personal responsibility to respond to His call.

(24) Which is shed for many.--Better, is being shed, the participle, both here and in St. Matthew, being in the present tense.

Verse 24. - This is my blood of the covenant. There is not sufficient authority for the retaining of the word "new" (καινῆς) in the text.
