Synopsis

Explore the foundations of Christian theology with one of the early Church’s most influential thinkers.

Complete Work of Origen — Volume 1 of 2 brings together three major portions of Origen’s literary legacy. Rich in theological inquiry, scriptural interpretation, and sustained argument, these writings offer an extensive encounter with a mind whose influence has endured for centuries.

This volume includes:

  • Origen De Principiis (On First Principles): A foundational exploration of Christian teaching concerning God, creation, human freedom, salvation, and the interpretation of Scripture.

  • The Letters of Origen: Correspondence illuminating questions of biblical authenticity, Christian learning, and the relationship between education and faith.

  • Origen Against Celsus: An eight-book defense of Christianity addressing an ancient critic’s objections to its beliefs, Scriptures, and practices.

Origen’s writings invite readers to consider questions that remain compelling: How should Scripture be understood? What is the relationship between faith and reason? How can religious belief answer serious criticism?

Published by Sempiterna Press, this first volume is a substantial resource for students of theology, readers of early Christian literature, and anyone interested in the intellectual history of Christianity.
