Sinopsis

Excerpt from Commentaries on the Affairs of the Christians Before the Time of Constantine the Great, Vol. 1: Or an Enlarged View of the Ecclesiastical History of the First Three Centuries

The name of Dr. Mosheim ranks so deservedly high in the republic of Letters, that no additional recommendation, it is presumed, can be wanting to ensure the attention of the learned to any work that may come forth under its sanction. - As a writer of Ecclesiastical History this profound and judicious scholar may be said to stand without a competitor. The subject was congenial to his mind, and whether we consider the talents he possessed, or the peculiar judgment and felicity with which he applied them to the elucidation of this department of Literature, his merit is alike conspicuous, and can never be too highly appreciated or extolled.

Amongst other works of acknowledged ingenuity and erudition which he published on this interesting and important subject, the one which we now venture to submit to the Public, for the first time in an English translation, appears to have engaged a very considerable portion of his attention and pains.
