(Worthington) Eucharist means even "good grace "or thanksgiving, being intended to enable us to render that tribute of praise, which he requires. (Haydock) There. Hebrew, "to him that ordereth his conversation aright, will I "(Protestants) The difference consists only in the points. (Berthier) Syriac, "There I will show him the way of his salvation "or, according to St. Chrysostom, "even my salvation. "(Calmet) By adoring God in spirit and truth, (Haydock) we may be saved.
