Origen Against Celsus V5 is a book written by Origen, a prominent early Christian theologian and scholar, in response to the criticisms of the pagan philosopher Celsus. Celsus was a fierce opponent of Christianity and wrote a book called The True Word, which attacked the beliefs and practices of the early Christian church. In this fifth volume of Origen's rebuttal, he continues to refute Celsus' arguments and defend the Christian faith. Origen's writing is a valuable resource for scholars and historians interested in the early history of Christianity and the intellectual debates of the time. This book is recommended for those who want to deepen their understanding of the early Christian church and its relationship with the wider intellectual and philosophical world of the time.As we allege, however, that he has fallen into confusion in consequence of false notions which he has imbibed, come and let us point them out to the best of our ability, and show that although Celsus considers it to be a Jewish custom to bow down to the heaven and the angels in it, such a practice is not at all Jewish, but is in violation of Judaism, as it also is to do obeisance to sun, moon, and stars, as well as images.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
