no Christian or practicing Catholic will be allowed to receive the Holy Communion by hand. He has also decreed that Holy Mass will no longer be celebrated in homes,

Which is about as Scriptural as the Catholic contrivance of the Lord's supper itself.

He must have a picture of Christ placing a wafer of bread on the tongue of the apostles, and maybe even one of the early church only meeting in special church buildings, and with the Lord's supper only being conducted by a unscriptural separate class of sacerdotal priests , offering it as a sacrifice for sins and dispensing it to the people as spiritual food.

They must be pictures for along with other distinctive Catholic teachings that are not manifest in the only wholly inspired substantive authoritative record of what the NT church believed (which is Scripture, in particular Acts through Revelation, which best shows how the NT church understood the gospels), neither are these.

Good, His body should be absorbed, and not handled.

Unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood....

Good for the Archbishop. I’ve never accepted communion by the hand. Never will. There is some positive news to end the evening with.
