This comprehensive study offers a critical, comparative analysis of
the sources available on Bardaisan and a reinterpretation of his
thought. The study highlights the profound points of contact
between Bardaisan, Origen, and their schools; the role of Plato's
Timaeus and Middle Platonism in Bardaisan's thought, and Stoicism.
Bardaisan's thought emerges as a deeply Christian one, depending on
the exegesis of Scripture read in the light of Greek philosophy.
Positive ancient sources present him as a deacon or even a
presbyter, as an author of refutations of Marcionism and
Gnosticism, and as a confessor of the faith during persecution.
