Origen, on Lev 26:10

Origen · c. A.D. 184–253
Lev 26:10 · Douay-Rheims
“You shall eat the oldest of the old store, and, new coming on, you shall cast away the old.”
On this verse:
“For we eat with blessing the old things, the prophetic words and the old things of the old things, the words of the law. And, when the new and evangelical words came, living according to the gospel, we bring forth the old things of the letter from before the new. He sets his tabernacle in us, fulfilling the promise which he spoke, "I will dwell among them and walk in them."”
