THIS EUCHARISTIC FEAST
Some things about human nature don’t change, even over the course of centuries. When we celebrate a holi- day, we have a meal; when we celebrate a significant event, we have a feast. In today’s first reading, Lady Wisdom is setting a feast, a sign of celebrating the cove- nant that Israel has with God. Israel’s central remem- brance of its saving Exodus covenant is the Passover meal.
So it is natural—and not coincidental—that the Chris- tian celebration of the new covenant sealed by the blood of Christ on the cross happens at a meal, our Eucharist, offered first by Jesus in the context of Passover remem- brance. It is easy for us, sometimes, to forget the very long and rich religious and human origins of our eucha- ristic feasting on the bread and cup that are the Body and Blood of Jesus. Today, and for the next few Sun- days that we hear the “Bread of Life” discourse from John, let us bring to mind the loving covenant that God makes with us, and be filled with great joy at this marvel- ous feast that we have come to attend!
