Holy Thursday in its entirety is about two sacraments that Jesus' instituted on Holy Thursday, the night before He sacrificed His life for our eternal salvation. He ordained the first bishops of the Church and instituted the Sacrament of Unity, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass not only with is "eternal banquet" symbolism but also as a remembrance of His one Sacrifice of Good Friday.
And in this context of two Sacraments, Holy Order and Holy Eucharist, He teaches His new bishops, that the priesthood of His Church, is different than the priesthood of the Old Covenant. It is not only about cultic rituals and purity, but also about service and getting one's hands dirty in that service, something completely anathema to the Old Testament inherited priesthood.
BRAVO POPE LEO XIV FOR REVERSING WHAT POPE FRANCIS DID AND RECOVERING WHAT HOLY THURSDAY IS ABOUT!
