Primitive practice. 149 Day in tlie middle of the second century, there is no mention of fasting as a pre-requisite for its reception.^ In sub-apostolic times, which were times of persecution, it became usual to receive the Holy Communion very early in the morning. The description given by Pliny to the Emperor Trajan, of the Christian assemblies in Asia Minor, confirms this statement.^ And it
...is corroborated by Tertullian "^ at the end of the second century. Various reasons may be assigned for this change of practice.
