This is the second homily on John chapter 6, which the Church arranges with Exodus chapter 16. In this homily, we try to show the parallels between these miraculous encounters with the Lord. And we talk about the nature of faith, which is necessary to believe in the Eucharist. I slipped a little bit, and accidentally said that the Jews wandered for 40 days in the wilderness, instead of 40 years. But everybody knows what I meant.

This is a homily on the Precious Blood of Jesus, it shows what the Precious Blood of Jesus does in a spiritual way what our natural blood does in a natural way.
