Abstract
Il est d’usage de qualifier le repas que Jésus prend avec ses disciples la veille de son arrestation de « dernier repas ». Or, il n’en est rien. Une lecture atten- tive des évangiles de Luc et de Jean montre que Jésus mange encore après sa mort: au moins du poisson, peut-être du pain et du miel. Un tel constat pourrait relever de l’anecdote et le travail qui y conduit d’un pur souci d’érudition. Sauf qu’ils ont des conséquences pratiques et des impacts contemporains. Car l’insistance sur une « dernière cène » où Jésus partage le pain et le vin a conduit l’Église chrétienne à survaloriser l’eucharistie comme seul repas liturgique, alors que le christianisme primitif semble avoir fait de tous les repas l’occasion de rencontrer le Ressuscité.
It is common to call «the Last Supper» the meal Jesus had with his disciples just before his arrest. But careful readings of the gospels of Luke and John show that Jesus keeps eating after his death: some fish, at least — maybe even bread and honey. This could be considered as an anecdote and a research on the subject considered as a purely intellectual concern. Except that this has practical consequences — and still does. As a matter of fact, insisting on that «Last Supper», when Jesus shares wine and bread, has brought the Church to overvalue the Eucharist as the only liturgical meal, even after primitive Christianity appears to have found in every meal an occasion to meet the Resurrected.
