Syriac Orthodox Malankara

"But did our Lord eat from His body or not? We say that He ate from it, and drank from His blood, for He said: 'I shall nor drink again of this fruit of the wine with you' [Mk. 14:25; Mt. 26;29]. Mar Aprem says: 'His disciples ate His body, and He [also] ate with them; and they drank His blood and He (also) drank with them. Similarly, Mar Ivanios [St. John Chrysostom] says: He tasted and gave to His disciples. And Jacob of Edessa says that truly He ate from His body and drank from His blood. The patriarch Kuriakos [of Takrit] and Moses Bar Kepha taught that He ate from His body and drank from His blood." - St. Dionysius Yac'ub bar Salibi ♰ 1171, Commentary on the Holy Qurbono
