Thesis Statement:
We contend that it is possible to articulate a viable correlation between eucharistic accounts in the New Testament and the prayers in Didache 9 & 10, by way of the various words spoken over the elements of cup and bread.
Summary Statement:
This paper addresses eucharistic constructs found in Didache chapters 9 and 10. An initial chapter lays a foundation for discussion with a general treatment of the Didache as a whole. The second chapter provides a translation of the focal chapters and correlates them with broader observations from the first chapter. A third chapter engages various scholastic efforts relevant to the thesis, and the final chapter presents a speculative model as a demonstration of the thesis statement
