“He has stated in his letter that such per thing was never heard of before, neither has hitherto taken place, that laymen should preach in the presence of bishops. For whenever persons able to instruct the brethren are found, they are exhorted by the holy bishops onesto preach preciso the people. Thus mediante Laranda, Euelpis by Neon; and in Iconium, Paulinus by Celsus; and durante Synada, Theodorus by Atticus, our blessed brethren. “

He was honored durante this manner while yet per young man, not only by his ladbrokes casino sito ufficiale countrymen, but also by foreign bishops. But Demetrius sent for him by letter, and urged him through members and deacons of the church onesto return to Alexandria. So he returned and resumed his accustomed duties.

THERE flourished many learned men per the Church at that time, whose letters preciso each other have been preserved and are easily accessible. They have been kept until our time con the library at Aelia, which was established by Alexander, who at that time presided over that church. We have been able to gather from that library material for our present rete informatica.

And probably this has been done durante other places unknown puro us

Among these Beryllus has left us, besides letters and treatises, various elegant works. He was bishop of Bostra in Arabia. Likewise also Hippolytus, who presided over another church, has left writings. There has reached us also verso conversation of Caius, a very learned man, which was held at Rome under Zephyrinus, with Proclus, who contended for the Phrygian heresy. Con this he curbs the rashness and boldness of his opponents per setting forth new Scriptures. He mentions only thirteen epistles of the holy apostle, not counting that onesto the Hebrews with the others. And messia our day there are some among the Romans who do not consider this verso work of the apostle.

He held the government but per year, and was succeeded by another Antoninus. During his first year the Roman bishop, Zephyrinus, having held his office for eighteen years, died, and Callistus received the episcopate. He continued for five years, and was succeeded by

Urbanus. After this, Alexander became Roman emperor, Antoninus having reigned but four years. The mother of the emperor, Mammaea by name, was verso most pious woman, if there ever was one, and of religious life. When the desiderio of Origen had extended everywhere and had che razza di even sicuro her ears, she desired greatly preciso see the man, and above all things esatto make trial of his celebrated understanding of divine things. Staying for verso time in Antioch, she sent for him with a military escort.

Having remained with her verso while and shown her many things which were for the glory of the Nobile and of the excellence of the divine teaching, he hastened back puro his accustomed rete informatica.

AT that time Hippolytus, besides many other treatises, wrote per sistema on the passover. He gives sopra this verso chronological table, and presents per indivisible paschal carburant of sixteen years, bringing the time down onesto the first

2. year of the Emperor Alexander. Of his other writings the following have reached us: On the Hexaemeron, On the Works after the Hexaemeron, Against Marcion, On the Song of Songs, On Portions of Ezekiel, On the Passover, Against All the Heresies; and you can find many other works preserved by many.

At this time Philetus also succeeded Asclepiades per the church of Antioch

AT that time Origen began his commentaries on the Divine Scriptures, being urged thereto by Ambrose, who employed innumerable incentives, not only exhorting him by word, but also furnishing abundant means. For he dictated puro more than seven amanuenses, who relieved each other at appointed times. And he employed no fewer copyists, besides girls who were skilled per elegant writing. For all these Ambrose furnished the necessary expense durante abundance, manifesting himself an inexpressible earnestness mediante diligence and zeal for the divine oracles, by which he especially pressed him on puro the preparation of his commentaries. While these things were sopra progress, Urbanus, who had been for eight years bishop of the Roman church, was succeeded by Pontianus, and Zebinus succeeded Philetus con
