The account of the fall in Genesis 3 uses figurative language, but affirms a
primeval event, a deed that took place at the beginning of the history of
man.²⁶⁴ Revelation gives us the certainty of faith that the whole of
human history is marked by the original fault freely committed by our first
parents.²⁶⁵

Then came the day of
Unleavened Bread, on which the passover lamb had to be sacrificed. So Jesus
sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the passover meal for us,
that we may eat it….” They went … and prepared the passover. and when
the hour came, he sat at table, and the apostles with him. and he said to them,
“I have earnestly desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer;
for I tell you I shall not eat it again until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of
God.”…. and he took bread, and when he had given thanks he broke it and
gave it to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this
in remembrance of me.” and likewise the cup after supper, saying,
“This cup which is poured out for you is the New Covenant in my
blood.”¹⁶⁴

Because it is the memorial of Christ’s Passover, the Eucharist is also a
sacrifice. the sacrificial character of the Eucharist is manifested in the very
words of institution: “This is my body which is given for you” and
“This cup which is poured out for you is the New Covenant in my
blood.”¹⁸⁵ In the Eucharist Christ gives us the very body which he
gave up for us on the cross, the very blood which he “poured out for many
for the forgiveness of sins.”¹⁸⁶

Mary’s role in the Church is inseparable from her union with Christ and flows
directly from it. “This union of the mother with the Son in the work of
salvation is made manifest from the time of Christ’s virginal conception up to
his death”;⁵⁰² it is made manifest above all at the hour of his
Passion:

To adore God is to acknowledge, in respect and absolute submission, the
“nothingness of the creature” who would not exist but for God. To
adore God is to praise and exalt him and to humble oneself, as Mary did in the
Magnificat, confessing with gratitude that he has done great things and holy is
his name.¹⁴ The worship of the one God sets man free from turning in on
himself, from the slavery of sin and the idolatry of the world.

The Lord leads all persons by paths and in ways pleasing to him, and each
believer responds according to his heart’s resolve and the personal expressions
of his prayer. However, Christian Tradition has retained three major
expressions of prayer: vocal meditative, and contemplative. They have one basic
trait in common: composure of heart. This vigilance in keeping the Word and
dwelling in the presence of God makes these three expressions intense times in
the life of prayer.

According
to an ancient tradition, one can distinguish between two senses of Scripture:
the literal and the spiritual, the latter being subdivided into the
allegorical, moral and anagogical senses. the profound concordance of the four
senses guarantees all its richness to the living reading of Scripture in the
Church.

“Men could not live with one another if there were not mutual confidence
that they were being truthful to one another.”²⁶² The virtue of
truth gives another his just due. Truthfulness keeps to the just mean between
what ought to be expressed and what ought to be kept secret: it entails honesty
and discretion. In justice, “as a matter of honor, one man owes it to
another to manifest the truth.”²⁶³
