Reseña del editor

The contrasts between the observance of the Lord's Supper of the first-century church and the nearly mystical rituals of today's elaborate ceremonies are examined in this scholarly work. To aid in understanding the evolution of the observance, the book explores the origins of the Lord's Supper, its significance to Jesus and the disciples, and the background of the Jewish Passover. The loss of the memorial celebration's simplicity amid a complex construction of human authority and tradition is also analysed.
