The receiving of the Eucharist is also a constituent part of the liturgy of Good Friday in the contemporary liturgy of the Roman rite. This was not always the case, however, over the course of history. This study consequently first analyses the liturgical sources of Antiquity (Itinerarium Egeriae) and of the early Middle Ages (Ordines Romani; Sacramentarium Gelasianum). The reality of the two liturgical phenomena (consecratio per contactum; missa sicca), which survived for a period of twelve centuries, is consequently commented on. The reform of the rite from 1955 and also its contemporary form, in accordance with the missal of Paul VI (1970), are explicitly described. The entire investigation reveals a certain instability of the rite of Holy Communion as a constituent part of the liturgy of Good Friday. An alternative structure for the liturgy of Good Friday (the liturgy of the Word, the veneration of the cross, solemn intercessions) is thereby offered in conclusion.
