		His sacrifice is nevertheless valid, since, by virtue of his priestly ordination, he celebrates in the name of Christ, even though in opposition to His wishes, and, as the self-sacrifice of Christ, even such a Mass remains essentially a spotless and untarnished sacrifice before God.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Sacrifice

	Sacrifice
		This view of sacrifice was fundamentally influenced by the idea that deities were represented by man-made images, and led to a much greater concern with the image's own mundane needs than with the person and requirements of the deity as such.
		This is because the homage expressed by sacrifices was meant to be a symbol of a life of homage to Yahweh, and the homage he looked for was obedience to the moral laws which he had given to his people.
		The idea that sacrifice might establish or restore a sense of communion between the deity and the worshipper is not found in Mesopotamian texts, while the absence of any concept of the importance attached to blood rituals in Israelite sacrifice is quite striking.
