enlightenment; but this enlightenment enables it to act on the whole
life. For a more detailed account see Landerer in the Jahrbucher fur
deutsche Theologie, Vol. II, Part 3, p. 500 ff., and Worter, _Die
christliche Lehre von Gnade und Freiheit bis auf Augustin_, 1860.]

[Footnote 801: This goal was much more clearly described by Clement than
by Origen; but it was the latter who, in his commentary on the Song of
Solomon, gave currency to the image of the soul as the bride of the
Logos. Bigg (p. 188 f.): "Origen, the first pioneer in so many fields of
Christian thought, the father in one of his many aspects of the English
Latitudinarians, became also the spiritual ancestor of Bernard, the
Victorines, and the author of the 'De imitatione,' of Tauler and Molinos
and Madame de Guyon."]

Prayer. This exegesis begins with the words: "It would be worth while to
examine more carefully whether the so-called Old Testament anywhere
contains a prayer in which God is called Father by anyone; for till now
we have found none in spite of all our seeking ... Constant and
unchangeable sonship is first given in the new covenant."]

[Footnote 806: See [Greek: peri archon] II. 10. 1-3. Origen wrote a
treatise on the resurrection, which, however, has not come down to us,
because it was very soon accounted heretical. We see from c. Cels V.
14-24 the difficulties he felt about the Church doctrine of the
resurrection of the flesh.]
