[FatherofFive]

Who did He say that to? Ordinary people or his chosen Apostles?

So only priests are to receive the Eucharist?

How do you know?

We do know how the traditional passover meal was eaten.

It's the priests that have maintained those forms of reverence

It is the Church that maintains the Traditions. It is the priests who create their own traditions.

[Gerard.P]

So only priests are to receive the Eucharist?

No. But only priests were taught how to consecrate at that Last Supper.

We do know how the traditional passover meal was eaten.

That Last Supper wasn't finished traditionally. Jesus put the cup of consummation down and would not drink from it until he was on the cross. It was then that he finished it.

"It's the priests that have maintained those forms of reverence..."

It is the Church that maintains the Traditions. It is the priests who create their own traditions.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. The original comment was about priests who have exhibited supernatural piety and miraculous events.
