We are What We Eat

In the Biblical story of creation, man is presented, first of all, as a hungry being...and the whole world as his food...

He is indeed that which he eats, and the whole world is presented as an all-embracing banquet table for man. And this image of the banquet remains, throughout the whole Bible, the central image of life.

Schmemann For the Life of the World pg 11
