Origen's exegetical technique and its influence on later Christianity. This second installment deals with Origen's homilies on the New Testament and most of the Old Testament (from the Book of Ruth to the end), but covers the influence of Origen on polemics against heresy, relations with philosophy and ancient literature, the Jews, number symbolism, marriage and sexual relations, community, the kiss of peace, and the hierarchy of the Church.
