Book Description
A few words may be permitted in explanation of the title chosen for this little Eucharistic Eulogy.Commenting on St. Paul's words, " Holding the Mystery of faith in a pure conscience J) (1 Tim. iii. 9), Estius says that Catharinus considers them to have reference to the Holy Eucharist, and to allude to the chalice of the Precious Blood which the deacons a t Mass presented to the faithful. Hessels, on the same Epistle, shares the view of Catharinus.The words MYSTERIUM FIDEI are part of the Form of Consecration in the :Missal; and this favours the opinion of Catharinus and Hessels, especially when we take into account the reasons for their presence in the Canon given by Pope Innocent 111., Bona, Bellarmine, and others.Innocent III. writes, in answer to John, Archbishop of Lyons: Since the Evangelists do not testify that Christ said this (Mysterium Fidei), you are not a little disturbed, and wonder that anyone should try to maintain that He said more than any of the Evangelists assert. But if you will diligently inspect the form of the Canon, besides this which you inquire about, you will find two other insertions in the Canon-viz., Elevatis oculis in coelum, and Aeterni Testamenti, which are not read in the text of the Gospel. Forsooth, we find many things omitted by the Evangelist about Our Lord's words and actions, which the Apostles are recorded to have supplemented in words or expressed in acts. Bellarmine, writing of Kemnitz and other Lutherans, says: Fifthly, they falsely assert that the words Novi et Aeterni Testamenti and Mysterium Fidei in the form of the consecration of the chalice are an addition, for in the Gospel it is only Novi Testamenti. I answer that, according to Tradition, St. Peter added them to the form: that they cannot be found fault with: that they are most true, and are gathered from the Scriptures. For the Testament of Christ is Eternal, and is thus distinguishedfrom the Old Testament, which was temporary. Also, that it cannot be doubted that the chalice of Our Lord's Blood is rightly called the Mystery of Faith, since in no other thing is Faith more to be exercised and more frequently exercised than in this, where it is contradicted by all the senses."Barradas (Tom. IV., Lib. IV., cap. 14) maintains that these very words were spoken by Christ, and were taught the Roman Church by St. Peter. For, says Barradas, if the words were not spoken by Christ, the Church would by no means have added them to the words of consecration which all are words of Christ. He quotes Salmeron in support of his view. He gives an account of the opinion of St. Thomas Aquinas, taken from P. 111., Q. LXXVIII., Art. 3, ad nonum. There, in answer to the objection that no Evangelist gives these words, the Saint explains that the Evangelists did not intend to give the forms of the Sacraments, which in the primitive Church had to be concealed, as Dionysius mentions, but they intended to construct the history of Christ. And the added Aeterni and Mysterium Fidei come from the tradition of the Lord, made known to the Church by the Apostles, as I have received of the Lord, that which also I delivered unto you" (1 Cor. xi. 23),and" Holding the Mystery of Faith" (1 Tim. iii. 9). Observe that St. Thomas also here sanctions the commentary application of St. Paul's words to the Holy Eucharist. Barradas does not seem to agree with the explanation of St. Thomas, which is not precisely his own, as we have seen above. But Scotus takes the Saint's view, and supports it with the same arguments as those of St. Thomas.
