In this monograph, Carl Johan Berglund reassesses Origen's
references to the second-century philologist Heracleon, without
presuming that Heracleon's exegesis is determined by views
described in heresiological sources or that every reference is
equivalent to a verbatim quotation. The author uses variations in
Origen's attribution formulas to categorize almost two hundred
references as either verbatim quotations, summaries, explanatory
paraphrases, or mere assertions. Heracleon's views are assessed by
considering the over fifty quotations and seventy summaries so
identified in a context of literature to which Heracleon refers -
John, a gospel similar to Matthew's, a collection of Pauline
epistles, and the Preaching of Peter. The author concludes that
Origen is likely to have inferred views he knew from his exegetical
opponents (the heterodox and "those who bring in the natures") that
were never expressed by Heracleon.
