Contextual Overview
12On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb was to be sacrificed, Jesus' disciples asked Him, "Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?" 13So He sent two of His disciples and told them, "Go into the city, and a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him, 14and whichever house he enters, say to the owner, 'The Teacher asks: Where is My guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?' 15And he will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there." 16So the disciples left and went into the city, where they found everything as Jesus had described. And they prepared the Passover. 17When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve. 18And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me." 19They began to be grieved and to ask Him one after another, "Surely not I?" 20He answered, "It is one of the Twelve-the one who is dipping his bread into the bowl with Me. 21The Son of Man will go just as it is written about Him, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed! It would be better for him if he had not been born."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And as they did eat,.... The paschal lamb, and the unleavened bread, just at the conclusion of that feast:
Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it; beginning and instituting a new feast, to be kept in aftertimes, in commemoration of his sufferings and death, now near at hand;
and gave to them, the disciples,
and said, take, eat: the word eat is not in the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, Arabic, Persic, and Ethiopic versions, and is wanting in some copies:
this is body; a figure and representation of it;

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 26:20-35.
Mark 14:31
More vehemently - More earnestly, more confidently.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 22. Eat — This is omitted by many MSS. and versions, but I think without reason. It is found in the parallel places, Matthew 26:26; 1 Corinthians 11:24. See the subject of the Lord's Supper largely explained on Matthew 26:26, &c.
