Excerpt from Origenis in Ezechielem Homiliae, in Canticum Canticorum Homiliarum Et Librorum, Vol. 1
Cundum homiliaticum genus, de quo et praesens inter pretatio eius est. Tertium quod ipse inscripsit 16, uovg, nos volumina possumus nuncupare, in quo opere tota ingenii sui vela spirantibus ventis dedit, et recedens a terra in medium pelagus auf1igit. Scio te cupere, ut omne genus transferam dictionis: praemisi causam, cur facere non passim. Hoc tamen spondeo, quia, si orante te Jesus reddiderit sanitatem, non dicam cuncta, quia hoc dixisse temerarium est, sed permulta sum translaturus, ea lege, qua tibi saepe constitui, ut ego vocem praebeam.

Origen Adamantius was an early Christian scholar, theologian, and one of the most distinguished of the early fathers of the Christian Church. According to tradition, he is held to have been an Egyptian who taught in Alexandria, reviving the Catechetical School of Alexandria where Clement of Alexandria had taught.
Using his knowledge of Hebrew, he produced a corrected Septuagint. He wrote commentaries on most of the books of the Bible. In De principiis (On First Principles), he articulated one of the first philosophical expositions of Christian doctrine.
