120 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

An essay in liturgical theology in two volumes, exploring the scriptural background to the liturgy of the Eucharist, with a focus on the Old Testament."This book is an essay in liturgical theology," writes Max Thurian, "It is in fact a study in biblical theology which seeks to provide a firm basis for the eucharistic liturgy in the great Judaeo-Christian tradition represented by the Scriptures." From the insights which came to him within the Brotherhood of Taizé in France, Max Thurian believes that the real presence of Christ must be studied within the 'liturgical action' and not isolated as a separate theological problem. In the Reformed tradition of Taizé he turns, therefore, to a study of the Scriptures and opens the Scriptural meaning of the Eucharistic memorial as seen in the Old and New Testaments.Part I deals with the Old Testament background, while Part II deals with the New Testament background.
