recalls one of the paschal blessings (“Blessed art thou, O Lord our God, king of the universe, creator of the fruit of the vine,” cited by Johnson 1991; see m. Ber. 6.1), but again the emphasis is on the eschatological context: Jesus says he will not drink the cup until he does so in the kingdom of God. The shared cup symbolizes intimate communion and a shared destiny between Jesus and his followers (cf. Ps. 16:4–5); it binds them to Jesus’s death (cf. 22:42; D. Garland 2011, 854; Danker 1988, 345).
