ACC ~ 1 Corinthians 3 v2a

SOLID FOOD. ORIGEN: In spiritual matters, “solid food” means the teaching about the Father and the Son. In the Old Testament, solid food appears under the guise of typology, as, for example, when we read about the serpent which Moses lifted up in the wilderness.This serpent was a picture, or type, of Christ, which explains why it was that the people were saved when they looked at it. COMMENTARY ON 1 CORINTHIANS 1.12.17-23.

CHRISTIAN TEACHERS, LIKE COWS, FEED BY TWO UDDERS. CAESARIUS OF ARLES: Not unfittingly, dearly beloved, do elders seem to bear a likeness to cows. Just as a cow has two udders to nurse her calf, so also elders ought to feed the Christian people with two udders: both the Old and the New Testaments. SERMON 4.4.

ONLY MILK. SEVERIAN OF GABALA: By “milk” Paul means moral teaching and miracles. Solid food, by contrast, is the proclamation of the doctrines of God. PAULINE COMMENTARY FROM THE GREEK CHURCH.
