Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sacrifice of the Mass: An Historical and Doctrinal Inquiry Into the Nature of the Eucharistic Sacrifice By a victim we mean, for the present, simply the thing that is offered. There can be no sacrifice without a victim, for there can be no offering. "Every high priest," says St. Paul, "is ordained to offer both gifts and sacrifices; wherefore it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer." - Heb. 8, 3. The victim must be external and sensible. Sacrifice is an act of external worship, and the thing sacrificed must therefore be perceptible by the senses. Also, it must be meet for sacrifice, that is to say, such that it shall be acceptable to God. Under the Mosaic dispensation God Himself made choice of and set apart certain things to be offered in sacrifice to Him. Now, given a victim meet for sacrifice, will the mere offering of it to God by a priest, without anything else, constitute a sacrifice? Does a thing that is in itself meet for sacrifice become a victim in the formal sense simply by being offered to God?
