H624 Origen of Alexandria

An examination of Alexandrian biblical hermeneutics exemplified in Origen`s “Homilies on Genesis.” Discusses Origien’s life and work (ca.185-263 C.E.) in Africa and the Middle East in the context of the pre-Nicene church. Origen`s original contributions will be compared to those of contemporary Jewish, Gnostic, and Christian exegetes.
