The Eucharist is foreshadowed in Jeremiah 15:16, "When I found your words, I devoured them; they became my joy and the happiness of my heart, Because I bore your name, O Lord, God of hosts..." keeping in mind John 1:14, "And the Word became flesh, and made his dwelling among us, and we saw his glory, the glory as of the Father's only Son, full of grace and truth."

Pretty neat, huh? Even if you guys already knew about this, it's still cool, isn't it?

Nah, I agree with it, but I thought Catholics were banned from interpreting scripture...?

yea it makes perfect sense to us just like with John 6:66 and The Last Supper but but we're in the truth so it's easier to just make sense.

Jeremiah 15:16:

[b]16.[/b][i]your words:[/i]Yahweh had placed his own words in the prophets mouth (1:9), and Ezekiel had to eat a scroll inscribed with Yahweh's words; this is a dramatic definition of the prophet's mission as the minister of God's word (dabar; cf. Jer 18:18). [i]I bore your name:[/i] The expression reveals a protective presence of God on His messenger (cf 14:9).

New Jerome Biblical Commentary, [i]2nd Edition[/i], Published 2000. Pg 280, Jeremiah (15:1-17:1) [b]18:49-52[/b]

Got nothing to do with the Eucharist.

No. But the Church encouraged them to learn from a priest, or a trained theologian so nothing is taken out of context, and then Catholics go the way of the protestants, 50000 differing churches.

16: Thy words were found, and I ate them, and thy words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart; for I am called by thy name, O LORD, God of hosts.


There is nothing wrong with seeing this as a foreshadowing of the Eucharist.

The New Jerome Commentary is certainly not infallible..!!!

Its got nothing to do with the Eucharist. The bible can only have one meaning for one section, you cant have 2-3-4-5 different interpretations for one verse, or section. Its got nothing to do with the Eucharist, its a reference to the Prophets job, thats it.

Who says? :D

A verse can have a literal meaning, and be typology at the same time
