Luke 24
[44] And he said to them: These are the words which I spoke to you, while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. [45] Then he opened their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures.
And
[25] Then he said to them: O foolish, and slow of heart to believe in all things which the prophets have spoken.
[26] Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and so to enter into his glory? [27] And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded to them in all the scriptures, the things that were concerning him.
Notebook 1944 Page 223
"It is for this reason that I, leaving aside elementary teaching, come to instruct you on what is most perfect, for I want to lead you to it. There will be few of you, the ones hungry for Justice, Truth, and Wisdom. But for these, my blessed ones, I give a bread which helps them to taste the other bread, that is I-as-Eucharist, better and better. In my public life, too, I had the bread of the Word precede the bread of the Sacrament. It is always the former which must prepare the latter. The teaching Church exists for this purpose. To perpetuate my ministry as Teacher and make you able to draw the maximum vital power from the Sacrament."
Jesus says in the Gospel of John, chapter 6, He who eats of this Bread shall never hunger. The Word of God written, is the precursor to the Bread of Heaven, as Eucharist.
You read the Word, it leads you to the Eucharist, your hunger is quenched, you are then, given vital energy to be capable of understanding greater the Word you read.
Both are needed. For without the other, you are lacking.
God supplied Both of these for your perfection as spirits.
One must read to nourish the intelligence of man, the mind and one must Eat to sustain vital energy. It is elementary. Learning and eating to grow.
Peace be with you always
