1 CORINTHIANS 10:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?”
Is not the cup of thanksgiving that we bless a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? — The cup blessed and bread broken constitute koinōnia (communion, participation) in Christ's body and blood. The verbs eulogéō (bless) and klasō (break) are liturgical. Participation (koinōnia) is not merely symbolic memory but real presence and union.
