en évidence l'usage symbolique de la nourriture dans les comportements rituels des Hébreux : interdiction de consommer certaines viandes décrétées impures, jeûnes pouvant aller jusqu'à l'interdiction totale de boire, sacrifices d'animaux : quel sens revêt donc un tel sacrifice pour un Dieu qu'on appelle précisément le " Dieu vivant " ? Le sacrifice du Christ se situe-t-il en continuité ou en rupture avec cette tradition ?
