Note 15 — Chapter V
Reading edition
This view is strengthened by the account given by S. Paul of the direct revelation granted to him respecting the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper. Not having been amongst the number of His Apostles in the days when He was on earth, S. Paul had received no instructions from His own mouth. But the defect was supplied by direct revelation. He says, “I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus, the same night in which He was betrayed, took bread,” &c. (1 Cor. xi. 23).
