Sažetak
The article analyzes Origen’s understanding of Scripture. The first part analyzes the conditions and assumptions for understanding Scripture in Origen’s thought. St. Paul and his interpretation of the Old Testament play a major role. It also points to the personal life of a believer (spirituality, conversion), which is also one of the basic conditions for a more complete interpretation of Scripture. The second part of the article reflects on Origen’s treatment of the Old Testament, especially in the context of the heresy of gnosis. The third part presents Origen as an exegete and a preacher. Origen’s exegesis was always motivated and directed at the proclamation of God’s word in the liturgy. The advantages of such exegesis and the limitations of purely scientific, academic exegesis are also discussed, as well as his, to the Church still current, reflections on some properties and dangers of the preacher.
