Abstract
This article focuses on the theological use of the eating and drinking
metaphors in Origen’s De principiis. The work is organized in three parts: 1. Physiological convictions regarding eating and drinking, where it is briefly shown how
Origen understands this process in a biological approach; this is important
because these convictions operate as assumptions within which the Alexandrian
constructs his theology. 2. Methodological remarks about the semantic field of
eating or drinking, at a level both biblical and cultural; this is important in order
to justify the use of these metaphors in theological contexts. Finally, 3. Theological uses of the metaphors, which demonstrate how Origen uses these metaphors
to explain and/or clarify important theological issues.This article focuses on the theological use of the eating and drinking
