The Eucharist, Solidarity and Community. A Biblical-theological and Social Approach

Nikola Hohnjec ; Catholic Faculty of Theology, University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia

Abstract

The Eucharist is prepared in the Old Testament by the sacrificial celebration of Passover and its deed of liberation. The Church through the centuries supported solidarity and saved the community character of this mistery. But the Eucharist representing a deep theological and liturgical event of believers testifies a permanent inspiration in commitment for the social justice. So is the Eucharist a memory of Jesus life for others and an invitation to responsabile behavior and action.

Keywords
