074: The Biblical Blueprint for the Mass (w/ Dr. Andrew Swafford)

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by Scripture scholar Dr. Andrew Swafford to talk about the biblical blueprints for the Mass. What insights do the Old and New Testaments give us into the Mass? What was God foreshadowing with the sacrificial system and the Temple in the Old Testament? How should this inform our understanding of the New Covenant, of the Last Supper, and of the crucifixion and the Mass? With several Bibles at hand, Dr. Andrew Swafford takes us deep into the biblical blueprint for the Mass and the uniquely Catholic details found in how God wants us to worship.
