This is a really interesting point!
Indeed. As Matthew said when I first brought this up ... once you see this, you can't unsee it.
Where Abel offered the spotless lamb, the Tridentine Mass offered the Spotless Victim (Hostia = blood sacrifice)
Where Cain offered the "fruit of the earth", the NOM offers the "fruit of the earth"
Where the NOM offers the fruit of the earth, Sacred Scripture teaches that as punishment for Original Sin, God cursed "the earth in his work" yet the Novus Ordo is offering this "fruit of the earth" and "work of human hands" (same Latin word for work in both places)
So the NOM replaces the offering of Our Lord's Sacrifice on the Cross, offering Himself as the Spotless Victim, with some banal offering of bread and wine, the fruit of the earth adn work of human hands, that which was rejected in Cain's offering and also that which God cursed (the earth in his work).
It's as plain as the nose on your face once you see it ... and you can't unsee it.
This is a sacrilegeous non-Catholic Mass that invalidates the Mass completely.
What's necessary for validity is not only the essential form (the consecration here), but also a clear unequivocal explanation of the Sacramental effect, i.e. what it is that you intend to accomplish. Well, the NOM says quite clearly that the intent of what follows is to offer bread and wine, whereas the Tridentine Canon made it clear that what's being offered is the Spotless Victim.
