Line 1: − == In the Bible ==+ − The Mass or [[Eucharist]] is [[Christian]] rite which is a reenactment of the [[Last Supper]]. The [[Bible]] describes the first Mass:+ − <blockquote> − And as they were eating, [[Jesus]] took bread, and blessed it, and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. <br /> − And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. <br /> − But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.<ref>[[Gospel of Matthew|Matthew]] 26:26-29</ref><br /> − </blockquote> − == In science == − In common parlance, mass is [[weight]], but in science, mass is a measurement of an object's inertia, or resistance to acceleration. It can also be describes as the degree to which an object bends space-time around it, according to the [[Theory of Relativity]]. One of the unsolved mysteries of [[physics]] is the origin of the rest-masses of the various particles is believed to be related to the [[Higgs boson]], which is currently being sought in [[particle accelerator]]s. − == References ==+ − − <references /> − − − [[Category:Physics]] − − ==See Also== − *[[Transubstantiation]] − *[[Mass (music)]]
