I don’t know. Denis MacDonald apparently has ** you do not have permission to see this link ** where he seems to defend just the link that Dan MacClellan denies (between the Eucharist in John and Euripides’s Bacchae)–though focused specifically on John, rather than Paul.
You can see him discuss it ** you do not have permission to see this link **, alongside Carl Ruck. He mentions having a student who deafened the thesis with lots of data, but he doesn’t name the student.
I’ve downloaded the book, but don’t know when I will get around to it.
What’s to understand?
Only God can be an immortal being. Therefore for the mortal being to acquire eternal life, they must acquire the immortal being within themselves by eating the flesh and drinking the blood of an immortal being. Well, that’s not at all verbose enough for Catholics.

I say you do not have evidence for that.
Anne Rice in her vampire books only have the vampire victims sucking the blood of the vampire to get vampire-immortality.
Compendium of the Emerald Tablets: A Beginner’s Guide by Billy Carson could be an upcoming book for me.
