The Writings of Origen, Vol. 1 gathers important works of the third-century Alexandrian theologian, one of the most influential and controversial of the early Church Fathers. This volume, from the Ante-Nicene Christian Library, includes Origen’s celebrated treatise against the pagan critic Celsus and other foundational texts.
A pioneer of biblical scholarship and Christian philosophy, Origen shaped the course of theology with his allegorical interpretation of Scripture and his bold speculative thought. These translations make his work accessible to modern readers of early Christian history. This free EPUB edition is ready to read on any e-reader, tablet, or phone.
