Hi Bob,
Since it seems many on this forum like the KJV, I'm attaching its
version of the provision we were looking at when the literal word
discussion began:
26: And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and
brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my
body.
27: And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying,
Drink ye all of it;
28: For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many
for the remission of sins
Since as you point out, Jesus understood what happens to what we ingest,
and since He told us to eat His Body and to drink His Blood, I'm not
sure I see how you can reach some other conclusion just because you
don't like the result. Is it really that difficult to just believe what
Christ taught.
Regards,
Nick.

To All,
One more thought on Communion. Jesus had something to say about what
happens to things that we ingest: "So Jesus said, 'Are you also still
without understanding? Do you not yet understand that whatever enters
the mouth goes into the stomach and is eliminated?'" (Matthew 15:16-17)
Jesus made no exception here for the bread and wine of Communion and we
all know what "eliminated" means. That is not a very happy ending for
objects that are supposedly the actual body and blood of Jesus.
