St. John 6.1-15: "Jesus took the five loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated; so also the fish, as much as they wanted".
"By celebrating the Last Supper with his apostles in the course of the Passover meal, Jesus gave the Jewish Passover its definitive meaning. Jesus' passing over to his Father by his death and Resurrection, the new Passover, is anticipated in the supper and celebrated in the Eucharist, which fulfills the Jewish Passover and anticipates the final Passover of the Church in the glory of the Kingdom" (CCC# 1340).
