Holy Eucharist Teachings by the Fathers of the Church
Fathers of the Church - St Jerome (c. 347 - 420 A.D.)
"After the type had been fulfilled by the passover celebration and He had eaten the flesh of the lamb with His Apostles, He takes bread which strengthens the heart of man, and goes on to the true Sacrament of the passover, so that just as Melchisedech, the priest of the Most High God, in prefiguring Him, made bread and wine an offering, He too makes Himself manifest in the reality of His own Body and Blood." (Commentaries on Matthew 4:26:26)
