About this listen

This captivating collection opens with two insightful works on the Trinity by Gregory of Nyssa, followed by thought-provoking Christological writings from Theodoret and Pope Leo I. Victorinus offers an allegorical interpretation of Genesis 1, linking the number 7 throughout the Bible to shed light on early church practices. Hippolytus provides a glimpse into the liturgical traditions of the Roman church at the dawn of the 3rd century, possibly tracing their roots even further back. In On the Faith, Gregory of Nyssa ardently defends the divinity of both the Son of God and the Holy Spirit. The Epistle of Barnabas serves as an early testament to the divergence between Christianity and Judaism, dating back to the 1st or 2nd century. Commodianus Instructions present a unique collection of 80 acrostic poems addressing various topics, including Christian responses to Greek deities. The Martyrdom of Polycarp stands out as one of the earliest narratives of Christian martyrdom, shaping the genre significantly. Finally, the collection concludes with Julian the Apostates attempts to restrain Christianity in the Roman Empire following Constantines pivotal conversion.
