Christ the High Priest

This is such a beautiful and sacred image because you can truly see Christ offering His body and blood. It highlights the redemptive and sacrificial nature of His love- from the wounds endured on the cross to the total gift of self in the eucharist.
We also see God assuming His position as the high priest (which is what takes place at every mass and qurbana). It reminds me of this prayer that the priest recites in the Syro Malabar qurbana before approaching the altar to begin the eucharistic celebration.

"I give You thanks, O God, Lord of
heaven and earth, the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Spirit. Though I am a
sinner, in Your mercy You have made
me worthy to offer You the glorious,
life-giving and divine mysteries of
the Body and Blood of Your anointed
One. I celebrate these divine
mysteries for the people, Your flock,
for the remission of their debts, the
forgiveness of their sins, the salvation
of their souls, the reconciliation of
the whole world, and for peace and
tranquility of all the Churches."
