Ambrosiaster, on 1Cor 11:26

“For as often as you shall eat this bread, and drink the chalice, you shall shew the death of the Lord, until he come.”

“Paul shows that the Lord's Supper is not a meal in the normal sense but spiritual medicine, which purifies the recipient if he partakes of it reverently. It is the memorial of our redemption, so that mindful of our Redeemer we might follow him more closely.”
