Description

Eucharistic Origins explores the origins of Christian practice and ritual, challenging traditional views on the development of the Eucharist. This revised edition draws on the latest liturgical scholarship to argue that early Christian celebrations were influenced by pre-existing Jewish meal customs.

The book examines how these practices evolved over time, with a focus on the third and fourth centuries AD, when classical eucharistic prayers began to take shape. The author presents these prayers in full, providing insight into their theology and significance.
