John 6:47
Douay-Rheims
Amen, amen I say unto you: He that believeth in me, hath everlasting life.
Augustine of Hippo
(Tr. xxvi. s. 12) This was the bread the manna typified, this was the bread the altar typified. Both the one and the other were sacraments, differing in symbol, alike in the thing signified. Hear the Apostle, They did all eat the same spiritual meat. (1 Cor. 10)
