Claudius of Turin and Transubstantiation

Q. Did Claudius advocate the Roman dogma of transubstantiation?


Claudius, Bishop of Turin (c. ?-827 A.D.):

Melchisedec did not offer carnal victims, but only bread and wine, as Christ offered an oblation of bread and wine, —that is, His body and blood, to God the Father; which oblation we daily offer and receive upon the altar. (J. P. Minge, Patrologiæ Cursus Completus, [1864], Patrologiæ Latinæ, Tomus CIV, Loca Quædam Claudii Taurinensis, In Epist. Ad Hebr. VII, 17, Col. 926). Here Trans. (J. H. Treat, The Catholic Faith; Or, Doctrines of the Church of Rome Contrary to Scripture and the Teaching of the Primitive Church, [1888], p. 187). Here
