Today’s Bible Readings
In the Old Testament Reading Moses reminds the people of Israel that the Lord led them safely through the wilderness throughout the forty years of their Exodus journey, and fed them when they experienced hunger with Manna, bread from heaven. This was to make them realise that man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.
In the Second Reading St Paul reminds the Christians of Corinth that the cup of blessing that we bless in the Eucharist is a participation in the blood of Christ, and the bread that we break is a participation in the body of Christ. Because we partake of the one bread, we who are many are one body.
In the Gospel Jesus says ‘I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread he will live for ever….Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.’
