Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lives of the Most Eminent Fathers of the Church That Flourished in the First Four Centuries, Vol. 2: With an Historical Account of the State of the Paganism Under the First Christian Emperors Two things there are, whereof, it is like, the reader will expect some account in reference to the following papers; first, concerning the work itself; and next, the materials out of which it is framed and built. The work contains the noblest portion of church history, this being, in many respects, the most considerable age of the church. For besides what concerns particular persons, whose lives and actions are here related, he will here find an account of the fall and suppression of paganism, the ancient and universally received religion of the world; of the conversion of princes to the faith; the adopting Christianity to be the religion of the empire; the acts and proceedings of the two first general councils; the advancement of the church to its greatest height of splendour; and those lamentable ruptures that soon after were made in it by schism and faction, by covetousness and ambition, and "the cunning craftiness of those that lie in wait to deceive."
