Summary
With the exception of Mark 14:22-25, all the Eucharistic traditions of the earliest Christianity (ca. 35-130 CE) were composed or reworked in Syrian Antioch. But how is it that such various traditions originated or interfered in the same church, within such a short period? Amiel Drimbe answers this question and argues that, in Antioch, there was a pattern of 'recurrent additions': a recent eucharistic tradition was added to those already existing, while the older traditions were also kept and revalued.
