For centuries a dilemma has existed because St. John, whose Gospel alone mentions Jesus' promise of the Eucharist (Jn 6) and who wrote far more extensively about the Last Supper than did any of the other Gospel writers, apparently does not mention the fulfillment of the promise by the institution of the Eucharist. Why this puzzling omission? In a groundbreaking new study, the fruit of 35 years of research and prayer, Msgr. Anthony La Femina proposes an astonishing solution to the problem. Moreover, he shows how St. John brings to light the specific nature of the New Covenant instituted by the Eucharist and what this covenant means for all persons. Much of this information has lain hidden until now. The book is of interest to both clergy and laity, particularly to those pursuing and teaching scriptural and theological studies. 174 pp. Softcover. "A gift to the Church." -Cardinal Raymond L. Burke "Daring and innovative but eminently compatible with Catholic doctrine." -Fr. Aidan Nichols, O.P.
