Publisher's Synopsis
How much of Western Christianity descended from a Roman Catholic or universal tradition formed under Constantine, and what impact did that have in Europe? Who was Constantine the Great to affect such vast world change? What was lost in the political and military shift that led Jewish followers of Jesus away from Judaism is examined in a way that digs for the severed Hebraic roots of Christian thought and practice. Dr. Dorsch traces Constantine's edicts, actions, and attitudes, revealing what paved the roads for a breed of Christianity quite different from the era of the Apostles, a world hostile to Jews that would ripen conditions for a Holocaust.
