And he took bread, and gave thanks, and broke it, and gave unto them, saying,
This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
All Commentaries on Luke 22:19 Go To Luke 22
Greek Expositor
AD 1000
He that communicates receives the whole Body and Blood of our Lord, even though he receive but a part of the Mysteries. For as one seal imparts the whole of its device to different substances, and yet remains entire after distribution, and as one word penetrates to the hearing of many, so there is no doubt that the Body and Blood of our Lord is received whole in all. But the breaking of the sacred bread signifies the Passion.
