Thanks for the newsflash. I wonder how long until they're up on the internet and translated. Could be years but I'd love to read them.
May God Bless, John 1720

From what I've read Origen was one if the most prolific Christian authors of the time. Only a very small portion of his writings have come down to us today because he was posthumously anathmatized by the Imperial Church. A lit of his stuff was consigned to the flames but he continued to be popular in certain sectors like the Coptic church that never accepted that particular council. The Nestorian church didn't accept it either but some of the church leadership still rejected him because they didn't like his manner of biblical exegesis.
