Duch Święty darem Eucharystii
Czaja, Andrzej (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2005)
Within the frameworks of the pneumatological interpretation of the Eucharist one may rarely find discussion on how the Holy Spirit makes it possible and carries it out. The Eucharist is rarely treated as an event of the pouring out of the Holy Spirit, despite the belief that it is the sacrament of Passover and Pentecost. Meanwhile, the grounds for this perception of the Eucharist can be found both in theological and liturgical traditions, and they seem to be stemming out of John’s pneumatology which speaks about the passing over of the Spirit at the Offer on the Calvary (cf. John 19:30). In the first part of the paper the counsels of the Syrian Church Fathers, especially St. Efraim, are reminded. They concern the eating of the Fire of the Holy Spirit at the Communion. The rites and words of the Byzantine Liturgy are pinpointed as they clear reveal the mystery of the Eucharist. The second part discusses the announcement the Word of God in the Eucharist as a bearer of the Spirit of God. It focuses on the thought of Pope Paul VI from the Evangelii nuntiandi and the noteworthy remarks made by some theologians, i.e. Rudolf Bohren, the representative of the reformed Church.
