The Words of Institution, also called the Words of Consecration, are words echoing those of Jesus himself at his Last Supper that, when consecrating bread and wine, Christian eucharistic liturgies include in a narrative of that event. Eucharistic scholars sometimes refer to them simply as the verba (Latin for "words").
The word "enim" ("for") has been added, apparently by analogy with the words spoken at the consecration of the chalice. As directed by the rubrics in all versions of the Roman Canon, the priest accompanies with similar actions the words about taking and looking up, but does not break or distribute the bread at this point.
The Tridentine Mass, [1] also known as the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite [2] or usus antiquior (more ancient usage), or the Traditional Latin Mass [3] [4] or the Traditional Rite [5] is the liturgy in the Roman Missal of the Catholic Church codified in 1570 and published thereafter with amendments up to 1962.
Little is known of the liturgical formulas of the Church of Rome before the second century. In the First Apology of Justin Martyr (c. 165) an early outline of the liturgy is found, including a celebration of the Eucharist (thanksgiving) with an Anaphora, with the final Amen, that was of what would now be classified as Eastern type and celebrated in Greek.
Between the Council of Trent and the reform of the Catholic liturgy, undertaken in 1969 (see Mass of Paul VI), the only anaphora used in the Roman Rite was the Roman Canon (or Canon of the Mass). For the history of the "Roman Canon" see also the articles Canon of the Mass, Pre-Tridentine Mass and Tridentine Mass.
The earliest surviving account of the celebration of the Eucharist or the Mass in Rome is that of Saint Justin Martyr (died c. 165), in chapter 67 of his First Apology: [2]. On the day called Sunday, all who live in cities or in the country gather together to one place, and the memoirs of the apostles or the writings of the prophets are read, as long as time permits; then, when the reader has ...
Concelebration. In Christianity, concelebration (from the Latin con + celebrare, 'to celebrate together') is the presiding of a number of presbyters (priests or ministers) at the celebration of the Eucharist with either a presbyter, bishop, or archbishop as the principal celebrant and the other presbyters and (arch)bishops present in the chancel assisting in the consecration of the Eucharist.
The adaptation of the Anaphora of Addai and Mari to include an explicit consecration narrative is another example of Latinisation. The unmodified version of this East Syriac liturgy lacks the Words of Institution traditionally required for Eucharistic consecration in the Latin Church.
