‏ 1 Corinthians 11:23

For I received of the Lord ( εγο γαρ παρελαβον απο του Κυριου ). Direct claim to revelation from the Lord Jesus on the origin of the Lord's Supper. Luke's account (Lu 22:17-20) is almost identical with this one. He could easily have read I Corinthians before he wrote his Gospel. See 15:3 for use of both παρελαβον and παρεδωκα. Note παρα in both verbs. Paul received the account from ( παρα--απο ) the Lord and passed it on from himself to them, a true παραδοσις (tradition) as in 11:2.

He was betrayed ( παρεδιδετο ). Imperfect passive indicative (irregular form for παρεδιδοτο, Robertson, Grammar, p. 340). Same verb as παρεδωκα (first aorist active indicative just used for "I delivered").
