Christian Insight into the Eucharist Simplified

By Bill McCarthy and James Tibbetts and Fr. Bill McCarthy and James Tibbetts

The book on the Holy Eucharist gives some background not usually found in most books on the Eucharist. Other books separate the Mass from the context of the first and second centuries. By the third century the Breaking of the Bread (1st and 2nd centuries) became the Eucharist (3rd century) with a formal Mass similar to what we know today, such as one of the oldest masses, the mass of St. James, which is similar to an orthodox mass. This book is focused on the biblical lifestyle and insights of the Breaking of the Bread in the early Church and its history, background and development in relation to kosher and related Jewish practices which are foundational in the Mass. Jesus just didn't create something new out of nothing; the Breaking of the Bread is tied in with the Jewish Tradition in a very deep way, kosher, Pentecost, tongues and related practices. It has a miraculous and healing aspect to it that most forget about.
