After supper (meta to deipnhsai). Meta and the articular aorist active infinitive, "after the dining" (or the supping) as in Luke 22:20.
The new covenant (h kainh diaqhkh). For diaqhkh see on Matthew 26:28. For kainov see on Luke 5:38; Luke 22:20. The position of estin before en tw aimati (in my blood) makes it a secondary or additional predicate and not to be taken just with diaqhkh (covenant or will).
As oft as ye drink it (osakiv an pinhte). Usual construction for general temporal clause of repetition (an and the present subjunctive with osakiv). So in verse 1 Corinthians 11:26.
Other commentary entries containing this verse:
Mark 14:23
Luke 22:20
1 Corinthians 10:16
Galatians 3:15
Hebrews 8:8
Hebrews 13:20
