Amy,
Perhaps you could just say that in the Bible, Jesus uses a cup, but the attention is upon Him and his words, not upon the physical object.
In the Arthurian legend, the cup itself is more powerful than any of the people involved with it, Parsival, Galahad, Joseph of Arimathea.
You could say that in the Bible, it is merely "a prop"used in the account of the Last Supper and never mentioned elsewhere,
but in the Arthurian cycle, it is central and can even be counted as one of the characters.
It is peripheral in the Bible, but near the center of many of the Arthurian Myths
A short answer, but you can probably think of more since you are studying these things now.
Good luck!!!!!!

What Biblical References are you talking about? The Grail is never mentioned in the Christian Bible the Grail is first mentioned in the writings of Britain and Northern French that tell of the arrival in Roman Britain of Joseph of Arametheia who carried a relic said to be the cup that Jesus used at the Last Supper.
The is the first of the Grail myths and they grow from there, They are nit tied to the Arthurian Legends when a Welsh Monk wrote the Mord de Aurthur in the 14th Century.

There's no mention of the "holy grail" before the 12th century. There is no biblical reference to that term.
If you're asking about the theories put forth by the DaVinci Code, there's no evidence behind those suggestions either. he just pieced together things that sounded good even though there's nothing that actually links them.

Robert De Niro among 1970 and 1995 Daniel Day-Lewis Christian Bale almost always actors that fairly deliver one hundred% attempt and cross all out. and will turn out to be into any function BQ (or is it MQ)- no. due to the fact I've obvious There Will Be Blood over 15 instances. When I consider of DDL, I do not consider of the fellow with slicked again hair and rings, I consider of Daniel Plainview. De Niro in his high would've pulled off the function, however it is fairly unimaginable to inform BQ2- favourite- best 10 first-class (correct now)- best three. perhaps #a million

The "Holy Grail" is not mentioned anywhere in the Bible.
EDIT - grab a Strong's concordance and look up the word "cup." That's the only biblical reference you're going to get.

The holy grail is nowhere in Scripture.It is in occult lore and refers to the female reproductive organs.It has nothing to do with the chalice.
