The word ''homily'' is derived from the [[Greek]] word ''homilia'' (from ''homilein''), which means to have [[communion]] or hold verbal [[intercourse]] with a person. In this sense ''homilia'' is used in 1 Corinthians 15:33. In Luke 24:14, we find the word ''homiloun'', and in Acts 24:26, homilei, both used in the sense of "speaking with". [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origen Origen] was the first to distinguish between ''logos'' (sermo) and ''homilia'' (tractatus). Since Origen's time, ''homily'' has meant, and still means, a [[commentary]], without formal introduction, division, or conclusion, on some part of Sacred [[Scripture]], the aim being to [[explain]] the literal, and evolve the [[spiritual]], [[meaning]] of the Sacred Text. The latter, as a rule, is the more important; but if, as in the case of Origen, more [[attention]] be paid to the former, the ''homily'' will be called expository rather than [[moral]] or hortatory. It is the oldest form of Christian [[preaching]].
