All liturgies can be traced back to two archetypes: the first is the liturgy of Hippolytus 174. Train of thought 174. The break in the transition to the sacrificial idea 177. The guiding concepts of the Hippolytan liturgy appear in Paul 178. The Christological hymn 178. Sacrifice and sacrificial meal 180. The sacrificial views of Hippolytus: how does one offer? 182. The offerre offering at table 182.
The second fundamental type is preserved in the Serapion liturgy 186. The Preface probably stems from Serapion 188. The Sanctus originates from the Jewish-influenced model 188. The Epiklesis and its sacrificial concept 189. The institution pericope 189. The "Image of Death" a mystery 190. The foundation narrative is a later insertion 196.
