Book Synopsis He Died Once, but His Sacrifice Lives On: The Mass as Sacrifice: Catholic for a Reason III by : Thomas Nash
Book excerpt: “Christ’s one sacrifice and His re-presentation of it in the Mass is a profound mystery.” To help us understand this, Thomas Nash gives a detailed outline of the Jewish understanding of sacrifice and how the New Testament authors would have understood Christ’s death and its relationship with Eucharist. In the Mass the priest “remembers” the sacrifice of His death and participates in the eternal offering of Christ’s death. Nash explains, however, that the Jewish understanding of remembrance was more than just a commemoration: “when the Hebrews remembered an event, God enabled that event to transcend time and impact the present.”
