Produktbeschreibung
The Evangelical Preparation, in fifteen books, is allowed on all hands to be a work of vast erudition. Like the Ecclesiastical History, it is eminently valuable on account of its containing large and important fragments of the works of ancient authors which have long since perished; as also extracts from those which still remain, and which are lasting proofs of their being genuine. It is astonishing to see the prodigious number of heathen philosophers, historians, and theologians, whose opinions he has crowded together, and with what address he sets every man's sword against his fellow, till they mutually destroy each other. The grand object of the work, is to prove that the heathens had nothing excellent but what they borrowed from the Jewish writings, and that the Christians had acted the most rational. from Critica Biblica, Or, Depository of Sacred Literature Comprising Remarks on The Sacred Scriptures

Autorenporträt
Eusebius of Caesarea, known as the "Father of Church History," was an early Christian historian and bishop. He was born around AD 260 in Palestine during a turbulent time in the Roman Empire. Eusebius studied under Pamphilus of Caesarea, who inspired his dedication to biblical scholarship.Eusebius is best known for his Ecclesiastical History, which records the early Church's growth from Christ to Constantine. His writings include theological works, apologetics, and biblical commentaries, reflecting his wide-ranging knowledge. As an ally of Emperor Constantine, he supported the emperor's vision of Christianity as a unifying force.Eusebius's legacy is mixed, with some criticizing his objectivity and views on Arianism. Despite this, his works remain vital for understanding early Christianity and its role in the Roman Empire. He died around AD 339, leaving a lasting impact on Christian history and thought.
