Origenism. The group of theories enunciated by, or attributed to,
Origen. Among his earliest opponents was
Methodius of Olympus, who rejected his teaching on the pre-existence of souls and his denial of the identity between the mortal and resurrection bodies. The 4th-cent. controversy was concerned mainly with the Trinitarian teaching of the
De Principiis. Origen was further accused of teaching
metempsychosis and of interpreting the Scriptures only allegorically. The initial attack by St
Epiphanius was taken up by St
Jerome. In 398
Rufinus issued his Latin translation of the
De Principiis, which was designed to vindicate Origen's orthodoxy, but in 400 a Council at
Alexandria condemned Origenism, and Pope Anastasius I and the Bps. of Palestine and Syria adhered to the condemnation.
The controversy flared up again in Palestine in the 6th cent. The opponents of Origenism secured the support of the Emp.
Justinian, who issued an edict giving a list of Origenistic errors and their refutation. The Origenist monks at Jerusalem then split into two parties. The Second Council of
Constantinople (553) finally condemned Origen's teaching.
