Describe what the 1st Passover, the Last Supper and the Mass have in common.
The Last Super was a Passover meal. The Gospels do not tell us that there was a lamb being eaten, but Jesus tells the Apostles that the bread is his flesh and the wine is his blood and that they must do this in remembrance of Him. He is the new Lamb of God. We receive the flesh and blood of the Lamb (Jesus) at every Mass. This is how we are freed from the slavery of sin.

Not trusting God. He made them and knew exactly what was good for them, but they did not trust Him and his laws, they thought his rules were unfair and probably weren't that big of a deal to break. This is the same thing at the heart of our sin.
