First let us repeat the beginning of the institution of the Lords Supper wherein all the three Evangelists, and S. Paul almost in words do agree, saying that Jesus took bread, gave thanks, brake, and gave it to the Disciples saying: Take, eat, this is my body.
Firste let vs repete the beginninge of the institution of the Lords Supper wherin all the three Euangelists, and S. Paule almost in woords doo agree, saying that Iesus took bread, gaue thanks, brake, and gaue it to the Disciples sayinge: Take, eate, this is my bodye.
Here it appeareth plainly, that Christ calleth very bread his body. For that which he took, was very bread. In this all men do agree. And that which he took, after he had given thanks, he brake: and that which he took and brake, he gave to his disciples: and that which be took, brake, and gave to his Disciples he said him self of it: This is my body. So it appeareth plainly that Christ called very bread his body. But very bread cannot be his body in very substance thereof: therefore it must needs have an other meaning. Which meaning appeareth plainly what it is, by the next sentence that followeth immediately, both in Luke and in Paul. And that is this.
Heer it appeareth plainly, that Christe calleth very bread his body. For that which he took, was very bread. In this all men doo agree. And that which he took, after he had giuen thankes, he brake: and that which he took and brake, he gaue to his disciples: and that which be took, brake, and gaue to his Disciples he saide him selfe of it: This is my body. So it appeareth plainelye that Christ called very bread his body. But very bread canot be his bodye in very substance therof: therfore it must needs haue an other meaninge. Which meaninge appeareth plainelye what it is, by the next sentence that followeth immediatly, both in Luke and in Paule. And that is this.
