Publisher's Synopsis
The Idea of the Resurrection in the Ante-Nicene Period is a book written by Calvin Klopp Staudt in 1909. The book explores the concept of resurrection in early Christian literature and theology, specifically in the period before the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD. Staudt analyzes the writings of early Church Fathers such as Ignatius of Antioch, Justin Martyr, and Tertullian, among others, to understand their beliefs about the resurrection of the dead. He also examines the influence of Greek philosophy and Jewish beliefs on early Christian ideas about the afterlife. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the development of the doctrine of resurrection in the early Church and its theological significance. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of early Christian history and theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
