Publisher's Synopsis
An Answer to the Jews is a religious text written by the early Christian theologian Tertullian. The book is primarily a response to the arguments made by Jewish scholars against the Christian faith. Tertullian defends Christianity by citing Old Testament prophecies and demonstrating how they have been fulfilled in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. He also argues that the Jewish scriptures are incomplete without the New Testament, which he claims provides the missing pieces of the puzzle. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of God, the divinity of Jesus, and the role of the Holy Spirit in Christian theology. Overall, An Answer to the Jews is an important work of early Christian apologetics that provides insight into the debates and controversies of the time.For why should God, the founder of the universe, the Governor of the whole world, (4) the Fashioner of humanity, the Sower(5) of universal nations be believed to have given a law through Moses to one people, and not be said to have assigned it to all nations? For unless He had given it to all by no means would He have habitually permitted even proselytes out of the nations to have access to it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
