Concerned that the celebration of the Lord's Supper had become a "ritual rather than a reality," WIlliam Barclay set forth his ideas on the biblical foundation of the sacrament, the history of its form and interpretation in the church, and its meaning for today. This reissue of an older Westminster John Knox Press title makes a welcome addition to the highly popular William Barclay Library series.
The William Barclay Library is a collection of books addressing the great issues of the Christian faith. As one of the world's most widely read interpreters of the Bible and its meaning, William Barclay devoted his life to helping people become more faithful disciples of Jesus Christ.
