mm:

Which priests?

annalex:The Catholic priests, those who "do it in commemoration of Him" every day to this day.

The Catholic priests who did the eucharist BEFORE Jesus died and rose again?

How does that work? Are they outside time, too?

I said, in the post you partly quoted: "It worked for the first priests BEFORE He died and rose". "It" in the English language cannot refer to "priests". In context, that was obviously referring to the Eucharist. That, -- the Eucharist -- was offered for the first time by Christ at the Last Supper. That Eucharist was offered by Christ Himself. However, his instruction afterwards: "do this" (Luke 22:19) has made them priest and they began offering the Eucharist following His death; see for example 1 Cor 11:20-30).
