THE HOLY BIBLE Douay-Rheims

Notes on Book of Exodus (Author Bishop Richard Challoner (ed.))

25:23 A table: On which were to be placed the twelve loaves of proposition: or, as they are called in the Hebrew, the face bread, because they were always to stand before the face of the Lord in his temple: as a figure of the eucharistic sacrifice and sacrament, in the church of Christ.
