Caiaphas

Folks at the Jungewatch blog are determined to dissect and dismantle the Neocatechumenal Way because of the contemplative consumption of the Host in our Eucharistic Celebration. The owner of the blog still does not understand that contemplative consumption and immediate consumption are not in contradiction to each other. Our practice in the Way is a variation and not a violation of the prescriptions in the liturgy books. But Caiaphas and the Pharisees do not care...
Simply provide the document that authorizes the Neocatechumenal Way to disregard the requirement that the sacred species be immediately consumed as required by the General Instruction of the Roman Missal, the "liturgical books" as noted in your statute. If there is authorization then I have no argument and you win. http://junglewatch2.blogspot.com/2013/12/lets-review_19.html
Here is the answer

Then Caiaphas said:  
No, Jesus, you cannot heal on Sabbath day. Simply provide the document that authorizes you, “Son of Man” (contempt is his eyes), to disregard the requirement that the sacred Sabbath be honored as required by the General Instruction of the Torah, the “liturgical books” as noted in your own Torah roll (Ex 20:8-10). If there is authorization then I have no argument and you win.

So Jesus responded: 
You are a hypocrite Caiaphas. “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath!” (Mk 2:27)
