Ciborium (container)

A ciborium (plural ciboria) is a covered container used in Roman Catholic, Anglican, and related churches to store the consecrated hosts of the sacrament of  Holy Communion. A ciborium is also  an architectural feature in some churches. It resembles the shape of a chalice but its bowl more round than conical, and takes its name from its cover, surmounted by a cross or other sacred design. In the early Christian Church, Holy communion was not kept at homes to be handy for the Last Rites where needed. In churches, a ciborium is usually kept in a tabernacle or aumbry. In some cases, it may be veiled to indicate the presence of the consecrated hosts.

Other containers for the host include the paten (a small plate) or a basin (for loaves or bread rather than wafers) used at the time of consecration and distribution at the main service of Holy Eucharist. A pyx is a small, circular container into which a few consecrated hosts can be placed. Pyxes are typically used to bring communion to the sick or shut-in.

Chalice

In Roman Catholicism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Oriental Orthodoxy, Anglicanism, Lutheranism and some other Christian denominations, a chalice is a standing cup used to hold sacramental wine during the Eucharist ( also called the Lord s Supper or Holy Communion). Chalices are often made of precious metal, and they are sometimes richly enamelled and jewelled. In Christian tradition the Holy Chalice is the vessel which Jesus used at the Last Supper to serve the wine.

De ciborie is in de katholieke liturgie de kelk waarin de geconsacreerde Hosties worden bewaard. In tegenstelling tot de miskelk heeft de ciborie een deksel, waarop doorgaans een rechtopstaand kruisje is bevestigd. Als de ciborie het Allerheiligste bevat hangt men er een ciborievelum overheen en bewaart men haar in het tabernakel. De binnenkant van de kelk ("cuppa") is bijna altijd verguld. Voor het Tweede Vaticaans Concilie was dit verplicht, tegenwoordig gewoon gebruikelijk.

Das Ziborium ist ein Kelch mit einem festen Deckel, der oft mit einem Stoffmäntelchen (Velum) umgeben ist. Die konsekrierten Hostien, die bei der Messe übrig bleiben, werden darin gesammelt und dann im Tabernakel aufbewahrt. Manchmal wird mit einem Ziborium bei einer Andacht auch der Segen erteilt, wie sonst mit einer Monstranz.

Im frühen Mittelalter wurde das Ziborium meist in Büchsenform aus edlem Holz, Elfenbein oder Metall angefertigt und mit einem Kreuz versehen. Im ausgehenden Mittelalter hatte sich seine Form so sehr der Form des Messkelches genähert, dass nur noch der Deckelabschluss den Unterschied verdeutlicht. In manchen Gegenden ist deshalb auch die Bezeichnung „Speisekelch“ gebräuchlich
