A Select Library of the Nicene and Post-Nicene Father of the Christian Church, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from A Select Library of the Nicene and Post-Nicene Father of the Christian Church, Vol. 2
I have included in this volume the four books of St. Augustin On Christian Doctrine. It is the first and best patristic work on biblical Hermeneutics, and continued for a thousand years, together with the Prefaces of Jerome, to be the chief exegetical guide. Although it is superseded as a scientific work by modern Hermeneutics and Critical Introductions to the Old and New Testaments, it is not surpassed for originality, depth and spiritual insight.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is the magnum opus of Saint Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, one of the most important figures in the development of Christian theology. Written in the wake of the sack of Rome by the Visigoths in 410 CE, it is a comprehensive defense of Christianity against the pagan charge that it was responsible for the disaster. Augustine argues that the sack was a consequence of Rome's moral decline and the decay of its traditional values. He also points out that Christians had been spared by the Visigoths, which he attributes to the protection of Christ. The City of God is a seminal work of Christian apologetics, but it is much more than that. It is also a profound meditation on the nature of history, the relationship between the earthly and heavenly cities, and the destiny of humanity. Augustine's insights into these topics continue to resonate with readers today, making this book an enduring classic of Christian thought. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331153849_0
