Did Jesus eat meat?
There are so many unbiblical lies about Jesus out in the world. For example, some claim that Jesus was vegan or vegetarian. Is that correct? Of course not. Jesus ate meat. And Jesus ate fish. Jesus was neither vegetarian nor vegan.
For the Easter meal (Passover), where people ate lamb, Jesus had His disciples make preparations: “Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.” (Jesus in Luke 22:8; NIV)
Jesus was looking forward to the lamb at the Easter meal
And Jesus liked to eat meat. Jesus was looking forward to the lamb Passover meal: “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.” (Jesus in Luke 22:15; NIV)
What did the resurrected Jesus eat?
This is what we read about the resurrected Jesus: “he asked them, ‘Do you have anything here to eat?’ They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he took it and ate it in their presence.” (Luke chapter 24, verses 41-43; NIV)
Freshly cooked fish for a delicious breakfast
When Jesus appeared to His disciples, who had spent the night fishing on the Sea of Galilee, on the shore of the water, He prepared fish on a charcoal fire: “When they had disembarked, they saw a charcoal fire on the ground and fish placed on it and bread (next to it). Jesus said to them, ‘Bring some of the fish you have just caught!'” (John 21:9; NLT)
