Remigius of Auxerre · c. A.D. 841–908
Matt 26:27 · Douay-Rheims
“And taking the chalice, he gave thanks, and gave to them, saying: Drink ye all of this.”
On this verse:
“For it should be known, that as John speaks, The many waters are nations and people. (Rev. 17:15.) And because we ought always to abide in Christ and Christ in us, wine mixed with water is offered, to shew that the head and the members, that is, Christ and the Church, are one body; or to shew that neither did Christ suffer without a love for our redemption, nor we can be saved without His Passion.”
