Paul called it a cup of blessing, because as we hold it in our hands we exalt him in our hymns, wondering and marveling at his unspeaking gift, blessing him for having poured out this draft so that we might not abide in error, and not only for having poured it out but also having imparted it to us all.—St. John Chrysostom, Homily 24 on 1 Corinthians
