Consubstantiality and participation in the Father in the Trinitarian mystery according to Origen

This article examines Origen's trinitarian theology, focusing on the notions of consubstantiality and participation in the Father through the Son. The study adopts an analytical and doctrinal approach, drawing on Origenian texts to bring out the internal structure of his trinitarian thought. The central idea is that the Son, coeternal with the Father from whom he is begotten, occupies a fundamental mediating position: it is through him that rational creatures gain knowledge of the Father and are transformed with a view to participation in the divine life. The theological contribution of the article lies in shedding light on the internal coherence of Origenian soteriology with his trinitarian doctrine, showing how the divine filiation of the Word grounds and makes possible the adoptive filiation of human beings within the trinitarian mystery.
