✦ Synopsis
Few of Origen’s sermons on the Book of Samuel and the Book of Kings have been preserved. Yet they include some of his most famous teachings, including the impromptu homily on the “witch” of Endor (1 Samuel 28), with its profound meditations on the descent of Christ and the Prophets into hell. Since this sermon has been handed down in Greek, it provides insight for the reader about the preacher Origen’s original voice.
