Publisher's Synopsis

The Seven Books Of Arnobius Adversus Gentes is a classic work of Christian apologetics written by Arnobius, a 4th-century North African Christian writer. Originally written in Latin, this book was first published in 1871 and has since become a valuable resource for scholars and students of early Christianity.In this work, Arnobius defends the Christian faith against the pagan religions of his time. He argues that Christianity is the only true religion and that the gods worshipped by the pagans are false and powerless. Arnobius also addresses common objections to Christianity, such as the problem of evil and the existence of suffering in the world.The Seven Books Of Arnobius Adversus Gentes is divided into seven books, each of which addresses a different aspect of the Christian faith. The first book is an introduction to the work, while the second book deals with the nature of God and the universe. The third book discusses the nature of man and the fourth book addresses the problem of evil. The fifth book is a critique of pagan religion, while the sixth book deals with the resurrection of the dead. The final book is a summary of the arguments presented in the previous six books.Overall, The Seven Books Of Arnobius Adversus Gentes is a comprehensive and thought-provoking work that continues to be relevant to contemporary discussions of religion and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
