Catechism of The COE
#25
Third Woe, I just scanned over your posts and would like to throw in a few things which might help to clarify things for you even more.

WHAT IS MALKA?

First of all, Malka is not the wheat or the bread. Malka is the yeast. The COE believes that the yeast in the present bread is the yeast from the very same bread which was used at the last supper. This is called the "Continuity Factor." This factor can be found in the Roman Catholic "Apostolic Succession", the Rabbinical "Semikhah", the Rabbinical "Ashes of the red heifer", etc.

"There is a traditional Jewish mitzveh that when making challah one should separate and set aside part of the dough. Some Jewish people remove a small piece of the challah dough (the word challah means to remove) and give it away to someone else as a challah starter.[18] In one Jewish custom a portion of the challah is set aside (refrigerated) until the making of new challah when the old is added to the new, thus maintaining the continuity of the challah. The Churches of the East keep back a portion of their liturgical bread, called the Holy Malka, and when new bread is made the old is added to the new. It is claimed this continuity reaches back to the original loaf used by Christ and his disciples at the last supper.[19] They also add a portion of the old anointing oil to the newly made anointing oil to establish a continuity of the oil, believed to reach back to the early disciples." <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://curtisdward.wordpress.com/2010/08/26/the-holy-anointing-oil-2/">http://curtisdward.wordpress.com/2010/0 ... ing-oil-2/</a><!-- m -->

There are ancient sources which refer to Holy Malka. Since the continuity factor seems to be a part of the Jewish mind-set, and since the Jewish people have been so consistent in keeping their rituals intact, it is not at all inconceivable that the COE actually DOES have a continuity reaching back to the last supper. We can be most certain that it reaches back several centuries.

WHO HAS HOLY MALKA?

The COE is not the only church which has Holy Malka. The Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church of the East ALSO has Holy Malka. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.indian-orthodox.co.uk/faith.htm">http://www.indian-orthodox.co.uk/faith.htm</a><!-- m --> They also have the Holy Myron. However, keep in mind that the COE, and the MOSC came from the same stump in India?the Saint Thomas Christians. No other churches in the world have the Holy Malka. No other churches in the world, except for the Armenian Church and the Coptic church, have the Holy Myron.
