Starting with a general overview of the relationship between medicine and religion from a diachronic perspective, this article examines, using the example of Hippocratic medicine in Greco-Roman antiquity, how natural-philosophical physicians both distanced themselves from contemporary religious beliefs and took them very seriously. For the first time in the history of medicine, this gave rise to a multifaceted interplay and tension between two different concepts, which persisted into the modern era.
