Last Supper

Those who are justihed on the Day of Doom will be welcomed by the banquet which the Eucharist anticipates, a covenant proclaimed at the time of the Last Supper, as in Luke 22 20, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you. In the engraving, another symbol of the sacramental covenant is the rainbow around the throne, an citation of God s promise to Noah in Genesis 9 13, reiterated in Revelation 4 3 where John sees around the throne of the Lamb a rainbow like an emerald in appearance. [Pg.118]

In the myth, the Grail appears upon the Table Round when the king and all his knights are gathered for court on the feast of Pentecost. Pentecost, or Whitsun, as it is also called, occurs fifty days after Easter (Christ s resurrection) and celebrates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the disciples when they are gathered together, in the same upper room in which they had celebrated the Last Supper with their master. The Divine Spirit descends like tongues of fire. [Pg.46]

So much has been written from time to time about the early history of this element that the barest outline will now suffice. Oxygen is the most abundant element in the earth s crust of which it constitutes some 50 per cent if we include the ocean and the atmosphere. The last named alone holds approximately 1218 billion tons of the gas. Leonardo da Vinci (1452 to 1519), the famous artist whose painting of The Last Supper , in Milan, is world famous, appears to have been fhe first European to state that air is not completely consumed during respiration or combustion. Boyle showed in 1660 that air was necessary for life, and in 1670 an Italian naturalist wrote that if the air holes of an insect were covered with oil or syrup, the insect would die in convulsions while one might say a Paternoster — a monkish method of measuring time. [Pg.21]
