6.32.1
ΧΧΧΙΙ. καὶ Ὠριγένει δὲ κατὰ τοῦτον τὸν χρόνον τὰ εἰς τὸν Ἡσαταν, ἐν ταὐτῷ δὲ καὶ τὰ εἰς τὸν Ἰεξεκιὴλ συνετάττετο· ὧν εἰς μὲν τὸ τρίτον μέρος τοῦ Ἡσαΐου μέχρι τῆς ὁράσεως τῶν τετραπόδων τῶν ἐν τῆ ἐρήμῳ τριάκοντα εἰς ἡμᾶς περιῆλθον τόμοι, εἰς δὲ τὸν Ἰεζεκιὴλ πέντε καἰ εἴκοσι, οὓς καὶ μόνους εἰς τὸν πάντα πεποίηται προφήτην. γενόμενος δὲ τηνικάδε ἐν Ἀθήναις, περαίνει μὲν τὰ εἰς τὸν Ἰεζεκιήλ, τῶν δ’ εἰς τὸ Αισμα τῶν ᾀσμάτων ἄρχεται, καὶ πρόεισίν γε αὐτόθι μέχρι τοῦ πέμπτου συγγράμματος· ἐπανελθὼν δ’ ἐπὶ τὴν Καισάρειαν καὶ ταῦτα εἰς πέρας, δέ κα ὄντα τὸν ἀριθμόν, ἄγει. τί δεῖ τῶν λόγων τἀνδρὸς ἐπὶ τοῦ παρόντος τὸν ἀκριβῆ κατάλογον ποιεῖσθαι, ἰδίας δεόμενον σχολῆς; ὃν καὶ ἀνεγράψαμεν εγράψαμεν ἐπὶ τῆς τοῦ Παμφίλου βίου τοῦ καθ’ ἡμᾶς ἱεροῦ μάρτυρος ἀναγραφῆς, ἐν ᾖ τὴν περὶ τὰ θεῖα σπουδὴν τοῦ Παμφίλου ὁπόση τις γεγόνοι, παριστῶντες, τῆς συναχθείσης αὐτῷ τῶν τε Ὠριγένους καὶ τῶν ἄλλων ἐκκλησιαστικῶν συγγραφέων βιβλιοθήκης τοὺς πίνακας παρεθέμην, ἐξ ὧν ὅτῳ φίλον, πάρεστιν ἐντελέστατα τῶν Ὠριγένους πόνων τὰ εἰς ἡμᾶς ἐλθόντα διαγνῶναι. νυνὶ δὲ πορευτέον ἐπὶ τὴν τῆς ἱστορίας ἀκολουθίαν.
XXXII. And Origen too at this time was composing his Commentaries on Isaiah, and at the same time those also on Ezekiel. Of the former, thirty tomes have come our way on the third part of Isaiah, up to the vision of the beasts in the desert; and on Ezekiel, five and twenty, the only ones that he has written on the whole prophet. And having come at that time to Athens, he finished the commentary on Ezekiel, and began that on the Song of Songs, carrying it forward there up to the fifth book. And returning to Caesarea he brought these also to an end, making the number ten. Why should one draw up the exact catalogue of the man's works here, seeing that such would require a special study? And we did record it in our account of the life of Pamphilus, that holy martyr of our day, in which, in showing the extent of Pamphilus's zeal for divine things, we quoted as evidence the lists of the library that had been brought together of the works of Origen and of other ecclesiastical writers; and from these whoever pleases can gather the fullest knowledge of the works of Origen that have reached us. But we must now proceed with our history.
