'The last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci'1;
Sophie; the last supper is the painting of thirteen men
Teabing: is it? Take a closer look.
Sophie; (confirmed) they are all men
Teabing: oh? How about the one seated in the place of honor, at the right hand of lord?
Sophie examines the figure.
Sophie; that’s a woman!!
The woman claimed by the author of the book is Mary Magdalene.
2;
Teabing; where is Jesus sitting?
Sophie; in the center
Teabing: Good. And what food are He and His disciplines eating?
Sophie; bread
Teabing; superb! And what drink?
Sophie: wine. They drank wine
Teabing; great! And one final question. How many wine glasses are there on the table?
Sophie paused, realizing it was a trick question. ~And after dinner, Jesus took the cup of wine, sharing it with his disciplines.~
Sophie; one cup! Jesus passed a single chalice of wine, just as modern Christians do at communion
Teabing; look again..
There are thirteen glasses on the table.
Taken from The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown.
