	Origen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Origen, however, was taken under the protection of a woman of wealth and standing; but as her household already included a heretic named Paul, the strictly orthodox Origen seems to have remained with her only a short time.
		Origen's chief aim was the practical exposition of the text, verse by verse; and while in such barren books as Leviticus and Numbers he sought to allegorize, the wealth of material in the prophets seldom rendered it necessary for him to seek meanings deeper than the surface afforded.
		Origen, trained in the school of Clement and by his father, was essentially a Platonist with occasional traces of Stoic philosophy.

	Origen - LoveToKnow 1911
		Origen was born, perhaps at Alexandria, of Christian parents in the year 185 or 186.
		Origen, who had distinguished himself by his intrepid zeal, was supported for a time by a lady of rank, but began about the same time to earn his bread by teaching; and in 203 he was placed, with the sanction of the bishop Demetrius, at the head of the catechetical school.
		Origen's textual studies on the Old Testament were undertaken partly in order to improve the manuscript tradition, and partly for apologetic reasons, to clear up the relation between the LXX and the original Hebrew text.

	Origen of Alexandria (c. 185-254 AD): Life, Works, Thought and Resources - ReligionFacts
		Origen's controversial views on the pre-existence of souls, the ultimate salvation of all beings and other topics eventually caused him to be labeled a heretic, yet his teachings were highly influential and today he is regarded as one of the most important early church fathers.
		Eusebius explains, "As Origen's renown spread everywhere and even came to her ears, she thought it very important to be favored with the sight of this man and to sample his understanding of divine matters which everyone was admiring." Origen stayed in Antioch for a short while, then returned again to Alexandria.
		Origen found three levels of meaning in the Scriptures: the common or historical sense, for the simple-minded or beginning reader, the "Soul" of the Scriptures which edifies those who perceive it, and a meaning hidden under those passages that are repugnant to the intellect by means of allegory.

	Origen of Alexandria [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Origen of Alexandria is considered one of the greatest of all Christian theologians.

	Origen of Alexandria (c.185 - c.254)
		Origen was the most prolific of the Christian writers of his time and his six-column arrangement of the Hebrew Old Testament text (known as the Hexapla)[2] was not surpassed for over a thousand years.[3] Much time has been wasted in discussions of Origen, arguing over whether he was orthodox or not.

		Origen has been called the father of the homily; it was he who contributed most to popularize this species of literature in which are to be found so many instructive details on the customs of the primitive Church,; its institutions, discipline, liturgy, and sacraments.

	Reincarnation and the Church
		Origen was a man devoted to scriptural authority, a scourge to the enemies of the church, and a martyr for the faith.
		Origen wrote in On First Principles, Chap V, that he believed that the wicked will be resurrected with "dark and fl bodies" according to their previous state of spiritual darkness and spiritual ignorance.
		Origen and early Christians believed in a higher form of "metempsychosis", a form of reincarnation which rejected the possibility of humans reincarnating as animals (i.e., transmigration.) It is this confusion that anti-reincarnationalists have today which leads them to falsely conclude that Origen's theology did not include reincarnation.
