Appendix Ii
APPENDIX II
JEROME AND ORIGENISM
" The tempest " 1 which disturbed the earlier pears of Jerome's monastic life in Bethlehem arose from the revival of Origenism 2 in the East 3 and the attempt to introduce its doctrines in the West
; the theological controversy led to personal quarrels with his old friend and fellow-student Rufinus 4 and with John, Bishop of Jerusalem , 5 the bitterness of which was reflected in many references to them in his later letters . 6
Jerome in his earlier years had been an enthusiastic admirer of Origen ; he had translated some of
Letter CXXVII. 9; cf. LXXVII. 8.
2 The following were the chief points of Origen's teaching which were deemed heretical : the pre-existence of soul ; the denial of the resurrection of the body ; the limitation of eternal punishment; and the possibility of salvation even for the devil.
Cf. Letter LI. Epiphanius to John of Jerusalem, translated by Jerome.
Origen's works had always been much admired in his native country, Egypt, and many of the monks there were
Origenists.
4 Rufinus (of Aquileia) (c. 344-410) was a member of Jerome's first band of ascetics at Aquileia; when this broke up he accompanied Melania to Palestine and founded, with her, monastic establishments on the Mount of Olives, where he carried on literary and educational work.
He was still oe friendly terms with Jerome in 392.

6 In this volume cf. pp. 431, 461, note 4.
APPENDIX II Origen's works and brought them to the knowledge of Pope Damasus, writing of them with unqualified approval. 1
It was perhaps the consciousness of this which induced Jerome to defend his own orthodoxy fiercely against a certain Aterbius, who visited Palestine in 395 and charged him, together with Rufinus and Bishop John, of being adherents of Origenism.
The vehemence of his defence alienated him from his friend and from his bishop, who declined to answer the charge which, in their opinion, Aterbius had no authority to bring against them.
When, therefore, in the following year, the aged bishop of Salamis, Epiphanius, who was the leader of the movement against Origenism, visited Jerusalem and denounced the errors of the heresy in Bishop John's own church, Rufinus sided with John in the ensuing controversy between the bishops, while Jerome and his monks took the side of Epiphanius. 2
John appealed to Theophilus, the Patriarch of Alexandria, who at first sided with the Origenists the monasteries at Bethlehem were practically placed under an interdict, and the bishop even tried to induce
Rufinus,3 the powerful minister of Theodosius, to banish Jerome from Palestine.
This danger, however, passed away with the assassination of Rufinus at the end of 395, and soon after Theophilus changed his views and made peace with Jerome, whom he reconciled also with John.
They worked together
Cf. the preface to his translation of Origen's two homilies on the Song of Songs (383); also Letter XXXIII. written to Paula in 384.
As late as 392 he wrote of Origen in terms of the highest admiration (Preface to Micah).
2 The particulars of this controversy are given in Jerome's treatise " against John of Jerusalem " and in Letter LI.

APPENDIX II
against the teachings of Origenism 1 and finally secured its condemnation in the East.
While Jerome's dispute with Bishop John was still at its height, Rufinus (of Aquileia) decided to leave
Palestine and return with Melania to Italy ; before his departure he was solemnly reconciled to Jerome at Easter 397, perhaps through the intervention of
Melania.8
The reconciliation between Jerome and Rufinus was probably sincere, but it did not stand the test of a further controversy on Origenism which arose in Italy.
On his arrival there Rufinus was strongly urged to translate the speculative works of Origen into Latin by a certain Macarius of Pinetum, a Roman of good position, perhaps a senator.4
The recrudescence of Origenism in the East had aroused interest in his works all over the Christian world, and in spite of Jerome's translations, the Western Church seems to have known little about him.
Rufinus, who always remained his fervent admirer, was glad of the opportunity to make his works known, and translated two books of the De Principiis , Origen's most controversial work, softening down or altering many passages which had been condemned as heretical, on the ground that these were not in the original
1 Jerome translated the encyclicals of Theophilus into Latin (Letters LXXXV,, LXXXVI. and LXXXIX.).

APPENDIX II work. 1
He published this work in the spring of 398, and added a preface in which he clearly referred to Jerome, though not by name, speaking of him in terms of the highest praise as a translator and admirer of Origen. 2
Such a description, though true of Jerome's opinions a few years before, was manifestly misleading in view of his attitude during the recent controversy in Palestine, and was strongly resented by Jerome's friends in Rome, especially Pammachius, Oceanus and Marcella, who sent a copy of Rufinus' work to Bethlehem.8
Jerome replied by making a literal translation of the first two books of the De Principiis and sending it to Pammachius at Rome with a letter defending his own orthodoxy,4 with which he enclosed a personal and not unfriendly letter to Rufinus. 5
This letter, however, which might have averted an open breach, never reached Rufinus.
When it got to Rome, circumstances there had changed ; the pope Siricius, never favourably disposed to Jerome and his circle, was dead,6 and his successor Anastasius, was under the influence of Jerome's triends ; after considerable controversy, which seems to show that the teachings of Origen had made some headway in the West, Origenism was formally condemned as here tical in 400. 7
Rufinus had left Rome on the death of Siricius and settled first at Milan and then at Aquileia, where he lived on 1 Such licence in translators was not uncommon and is defended by Jerome (by whose example Rufinus justifies his own methods) in Letters LVII., LXI. and LXVI.

and 10, Jerome ascribes this chiefly to Marcella.
APPENDIX II friendly terms with Jerome's friend, Bishop Chromatins, for about ten years.
It was there that he read the attack which Jerome had made on him in the letter sent to Pammachius, who seems to have suppressed the personal letter addressed to Rufinus himself. 1
A bitter controversy ensued in consequence between Jerome and Rufinus . 2
Their friends tried in vain to reconcile them 3 ; and Jerome's anger against his former friend did not end even with the latter's death . 4
