THE HOLY BIBLE Douay-Rheims

Notes on The First Epistle of St. Paul to the Corinthians (Author Bishop Richard Challoner (ed.))

11:20 The Lord's supper: So the apostle here calls the charity feasts observed by the primitive Christians; and reprehends the abuses of the Corinthians, on these occasions; which were the more criminal, because these feasts were accompanied with the celebrating of the eucharistic sacrifice and sacrament.
