    Homilies on Numbers

    Ancient Christian Texts

    by Origen
    Translated by Thomas P. Scheck
    Edited by Christopher A. Hall

    Origen was one of the most influential pre-Nicene church fathers, whose exegetical method shaped much of subsequent interpretation of the Old Testament. Some of his theological speculations were condemned in the 6th cenutry, but his influence as a Christian scholar and Old Testament exegete remain undiminished. This book offers a fresh, contemporary translation of Origen's 28 homilies on the book of Numbers.
