Communion Spoons

The small spoon with a cross is used by a priest or bishop for distribution of the Holy Gifts to believers from the chalice. Since the spoon is used in the Orthodox tradition exclusively for this purpose, it is also called the Eucharistic.

 

Symbolical and practical purpose

 

Like other Eucharistic utensils (discos, chalice), a spoon is made of metals, which are least susceptible to oxidation. The Greek name of the spoon - “lavis”, that is, “forceps”, reveals its symbolic meaning as the likeness of those forceps with which the angel, taking the hot coal, put it into the mouth of the prophet in the book of Isaiah (Isa. 6.6). The practical purpose of the Eucharistic spoon is very simple - with its help you can commune people much faster during crowded divine services.

 

Do Christians always receive Communion using spoon?

 

Communion with the help of a spoon did not appear immediately in Christian worship. Initially, all Christians communed as the clergy at the altar take communion: each took a particle of the Holy Body, and then drank the Holy Blood of Christ from the common cup. However, over the centuries, when the number of Christians increased, this method of communion took a long time and became uncomfortable in the church. That is why the communion of the laity with the help of a Eucharistic spoon has come into practice. Often this innovation is prescribed to St. John Chrysostom (347 - 407), however, studies of liturgists attribute the appearance of a spoon to the VII century.
