It should be noted that the chalice in Christianity is not only used in Catholic liturgy but by other Christian churches (although other names may be applied according to each population) and that it derives from the main cup used in Passover, since Jesus Christ at the Last Supper, which was at Passover or on the eve of Passover, used such an important ritual element to establish what in Romance languages is later called common union or communion through the rite of the Eucharist. More information: The priestly chalice, the vessel that holds the Blood of Christ during Mass. A symbol of communion between God and men, of salvation embodied in Jesus. The chalice is the sacred vessel used to contain the wine that becomes the Blood of Christ during the Eucharistic celebration. It symbolizes the chalice used by Jesus during the Last Supper, which was then a very common vessel. In fact, the Latin word calix means glass, cup, goblet, an object commonly used in any home. And precisely private homes were the first places of worship for Christians, so it is natural that they used a normal vessel to consecrate the wine of the Liturgy.
