Is the time-gap as mentioned during Consecration, of significance to Christian faith?
It is not so much a statement of significance as it is rather done in imitation of what Christ did. Thus priests try to imitate how Jesus said the first mass!
In like manner the chalice also, after he had supped, saying: This is the chalice, the new testament in my blood, which shall be shed for you. - Luke 22:20
Priests are asked to do this at their ordination: “Understand what you do, imitate what you celebrate, and conform your life to the mystery of the Lord’s cross.”
This is a very profound mystery indeed!
