Mateus 26

Paschasius Radbertus

Mateus 26:26

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] As then real flesh was created by the Holy Spirit without sexual union, so by the same Holy Spirit the substance of bread and wine are consecrated into the Body and Blood of Christ. And because this consecration is made by the Lord's word, it is added, He blessed. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas
