Jesus speaks of his death and resurrection, by Origen of - TopicsExpress



          

Jesus speaks of his death and resurrection, by Origen of Alexandria (185-254 AD) I think we have an obligation to examine this, too: that Jesus was delivered into the hands of men, not by men into the hands of men but by powers to whom the Father delivered his Son on behalf of us all. In the very act of being delivered and coming under the power of those to whom he was delivered, he “destroyed him who had the power of death.” For “through death he destroyed him who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and delivered all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong bondage. (excerpt from COMMENTARY ON MATTHEW 13.8)
