Leonardo Da Vinci's 'The Last Supper' Reveals More Secrets

For instance, a fallen saltshaker is traditionally a sign of bad luck. The researchers question if instead of indicating the mischief of Judas, the fallen saltshaker could suggest his rehabilitation. He could have been chosen to play the role of the traitor. And why is he the only one with an empty plate? It could mean he is full and mischievous or that he is the only one who isn't fooled?

Interesting, or was Da Vinci alluding to:-

Mat 5:13 "You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste , how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet.

Wow did they blow that one.

Fez answered this one well. In addition, to me, the empty plate means empty spiritually.

All artists put their own spin and interpretation of something in their artwork - half the time only they themselves know what the heck they mean!!

It doesn't surprise me that Leonardo has done what many other artists do - I reckon he'd be laughing so hard if he knew they study his work to death...I mean poor Mona Lisa's "smile" has been disected beyond belief...

I honestly don't think his artwork was symbolic to any secret sect and what have you..... sorry Dan..

I also think that the empty plate is very symbolic of the fact that Judas was empty spiritually and did not share the communion that Jesus was speaking of at the Last Supper.
