Question: if the word "is" is a verb and is used to describe a state of being or to link words together in a sentence. The word "symbol" is a noun that is used to represent an idea, a thing, a feeling, or a quality.

The reason why it is difficult to distinguish between these two statements is because both contain the verb "is," which serves to link other words together and describe a state of being. Additionally, both statements imply the same symbolic meaning, which is that the bread will serve as a representation of the speaker's flesh. Therefore, it is difficult to differentiate between the two statements, since the word "is" serves to connect the words together in both of them and that the bread will serve as a symbolic representation in both sentences.
