Summary: | It is a rule in academic life that many hands make heavy work—never more so, one might fear, than when a conference on Origen's prolix Commentary on John gives rise to a volume greater in bulk than the original.

The 22 participants in this conference, held in Rome in 2004, have approached their task with the skill and patience characteristic of the ‘Gruppo Italiano di Ricerca su Origene’. |
