<div dir="auto">Presentation abstract </div>
<div dir="auto">In late antiquity, the questions concerning the nature and origin of language surfaced indiscussions of religious thinkers. Touching upon the concepts of prayer, exegesis of the sacredtexts, and divine names, linguistic issues featured in the
works of Origen. Thus, the first book of his Contra Celsum preserves an intriguing account of the classical and contemporary language theories. Danielou and Dillon considered this Origen's witness as a proof of his sympathies to thevoces magicae concept, which
goes back to the Chaldean Oracles. In this article, I examine there liability of Origen's doxographical testimony, sketch his linguistic views in the context of the Stoic teaching and show what practical implications his language theory had on his approach
toexegesis and prayer.</div>
