Pregnancy, Breastfeeding, & the Holy EucharistYou lived on my blood
What I ate, you ate These breasts fed you…all of you I have nourished a clan with my own flesh and blood So when you tell me that it is difficult to understand a first-century male Jewish rabbi I sigh…patronized We women know what it means to have someone eat our flesh and drink our blood, for you to be part of us, for your very life to depend on us

I think this is a great idea for you to be blogging. I have never thought about the Eucharist in these terms.
