By common consent Against Praxeas is one of Tertullian’s most important works. It possesses a positive and historic significance as the earliest surviving formal statement of the doctrine of the Trinity. It is true that the argument, at least so far as it is based on passages from the Greek version of the Old Testament, or on a Latin translation of that Greek, is not so convincing to the modern student of Scripture as it must have been in Tertullian’s own day. Yet the knowledge of the Bible shown is amazing. At the same time the sheer brain power which the work exhibits would render it notable in any age.

The Loeb Classical Library is an essential set for anyone studying the classics.

To make the original languages accessible to someone with little or no training, Loeb paired Greek and Latin texts with English translations on facing pages for easy reference.

During its first four centuries, Christianity produced some of the world’s most profound historical, theological, and philosophical literature. This collection comprises an enormous selection of their work, including heart-wrenching martyrdom narratives, intimate letters, remarkable biblical commentaries, and profound philosophical and theological treatises. Contributors include some of the most influential thinkers in world history—such as Justin Martyr, Athanasius, Augustine, and Jerome—as well as lesser-known and controversial figures such as Origen, Maximus the Confessor, and Cyprian of Carthage.

These are the only three existing ante-Nicene treatises on the Lord’s Prayer, and they became the starting point for many other commentaries. Of the three, however, only the discourse of Cyprian is an address to catechumens. Tertullian’s treatise contains additional material on the conduct of worship and on prayer in the assembly, and Origen’s commentary is a vast work on the whole subject of prayer, as much suited to advanced learners in the school of Christ as to those preparing for baptism.

This series provides a number of introductions and essays on the lives and works of the early Church Fathers, beginning with the apostolic age and continuing all the way through the end of the eighth century. Each father or influential figure is covered in a biographical format, and most of their works are summarized as well. This collection serves as a perfect introduction to the early Church Fathers for anyone interested in either patristics or early Church history.
