3. That which makes many to think that Christ did eat the Passover before that other Supper in which he gave the sop to Judas, is a mistake of the Jewish custom, which as they conceive was to eat other meat after, but none before the Paschal Lamb. Now to me the contrary appeareth, namely, that whatsoever the Jews did eat before the Paschal Supper, in the night of the Passover, was eaten before the Paschal Supper, and it was among them forbidden to eat any thing after the Paschal Supper. Which may be proved not only by that Talmudical Canon (cited by D. Buxtorf in hist. instit. caenae Dom.) which saith, The Passover is not eaten except after meal: but also more plainly by wLiber rituum paschalium lately translated and published by Rittangelius: and by another Canon cited by xMartinius.

Comedentium caetus sic dimittitur, ut nihil amplius cibi aut bellariorum aut similes secundarum mensarum delitias, quae ad commessationes pertinent, illis comedere aut quicquam bibere permissum sit: non enim in more habent post sacram hanc caenam indulgere commesstionibus & […], imo ne minimum quidem gustant.
