For not as common bread and common drink do we receive these; but in like manner as Jesus Christ our Saviour, having been made flesh by the Word of God, had both flesh and blood for our salvation, so likewise have we been taught that the food which is blessed by the prayer of His Word, and from which our blood and flesh by transmutation are nourished, IS THE FLESH AND BLOOD OF THAT JESUS WHO WAS MADE FLESH.
Porque no los tomamos como pan o bebida comunes, sino que, así como Jesucristo, Nuestro Salvador, se encarnó por virtud del Verbo de Dios para nuestra salvación, del mismo modo nos han enseñado que esta comida de la cual se alimentan nuestra carne y nuestra sangre es la Carne y la Sangre del mismo Jesús encarnado, pues en esos alimentos se ha realizado el prodigio mediante la oración que contiene las palabras del mismo Cristo.
