Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating era of early Christianity, examining the relationship between the burgeoning Christian faith and the decline of classical Greek philosophy. The author takes readers on a journey through the historical context of the Roman Empire, specifically the period from Augustus to Constantine. He analyzes the political and social climate of the time, highlighting the empireââ â¢s remarkable prosperity and its simultaneous moral decay. The book then explores the intellectual landscape of this era, examining the influence of Jewish thought on Greek philosophy and the impact of both on the development of early Christianity. The author highlights the emergence of a new religious order in Rome, distinct from Judaism and distinct from the prevailing Greek philosophical schools, and demonstrates how the Christian Church, founded by Peter, grew rapidly despite persecution, becoming a powerful force in the Roman world. The book offers a nuanced look at the contrasting powers of Greek philosophy and the Christian Church, revealing the profound impact of the latter on the formation of a new social order and the reconstruction of human values.
