Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses two aspects of the St Apostle Paul’s teaching on the Mystery of the Body and Blood of Christ that spring from the living liturgical experience and tradition of the Church. These are: liturgical understanding of the establishment words in the light of Paul's sayings and manifestation of this mystery as the Mystery of the communion in the Body and Blood of Christ. Making it similar to the eucharistic practice of the Last Supper i.e. of the Christ, Paul's saying is completely integrated into the tradition of the Gospel, because what he gives to the Church at Corinth is the Divine Eucharist.
