Answ. I verily believe that beside the Paschal and Eucharistical suppers, Christ and his Disciples had that night a common or ordinary supper, and so think Calvin and Beza upon Matth. 26. 20. Pareus upon Matth. 26. 21. Fulk on 1. Cor. 11. 23. Cartwright ibid. and in his Harmony lib. 3. pag. 173. Pelargus in Joh. 13. quaest. 2. Tossanu• in Matth. 26. Tolet and Maldon upon John 13. 2.
