PANTAENUS , See also:head of the catechetical school at See also:Alexandria, C. A.D. 180-200, knowlt chiefly as having been the See also:master of See also:Clement, who succeeded him, and of See also:Alexander, See also:bishop of See also:Jerusalem. Clement speaks of him as the " Sicilian See also:bee," but of his See also:birth and See also:death nothing is known. See also:Eusebius and See also:Jerome speak of him as having been, originally at least, a Stoic, and as having been sent, on See also:account of his zeal and learning, as a missionary to " See also:India."

Pantaenus " expounded the treasures of divine See also:doctrine both orally and in See also:writing," but only a few brief reminiscences of his teaching are extant (see See also:Routh, Rel. See also:sac. i. 375-383). See also:Lightfoot suggests that the conclusion of the well-known See also:Epistle to See also:Diognetus, chs. 11, 12, may be the See also:work of Pantaenus. Clement thought highly of his abilities, and See also:Origen appeals to his authority in connexion with the inclusion of philosophy in the theological course.
