The name Agape (Greek meaning ~"love-feast)
as an expression denoting the common meals of the early church, ...is found in the New Testament only in Jude 1:12 and in 2 Peter 2:13
Origin of the Agape:
So far as the Jerusalem community was concerned,
the common meal appears to have sprung out of the
"koinoni that characterized the first days of the Christian church (compare Ac 1:14; 2:1 etc.).
The religious meals familiar to Jews—the Passover being the great type—would make it natural in Jerusalem to give expression by means of table fellowship to the sense of brotherhood,
and the community of goods practiced by the infant church (Acts 2:44; 4:32)
would readily take the particular form of a common table at which the wants of the poor were supplied out of the abundance of the rich (Acts 6:1 ff).
