Abstract

The Eucharist has traditionally been attached to the so-called 'words of institution.' Historical critical methods show that these words are post-resurrection creations of early ecclesial communities. The historical Jesus did not 'institute' a ritual and sacrament to his memory. Analysis of fragments from the Q community, the Didache, the Gospels of John and Luke and Paul's community of Corinth sets the framework for the analysis of the BEM document and LIMA liturgy of the W.C.C. Women in four countries, using a common methodology, found the 'institutional words' and language of BEM irrelevant to their experience and biblical reflections.
