BIOGRAPHY
Here is the translation in English of the bio: Origen (in Ancient Greek Ὠριγένης / Ōrigénēs) is a philosopher and Christian theologian born in Alexandria around 184. He is one of the most influential of the Church Fathers and one of the first theologians to systematize Christian thinking. Origen was the first to explain Christianity in philosophical terms and to develop a theory of levels of interpretation of the Bible. He was also an important biblical exegete and his work had a great influence on the development of Christian doctrine. Origen was persecuted several times by the Roman authorities and was eventually exiled from his native Alexandria. He died a martyr in 254.
