As the historian Socrates Scholasticus said, at the opening of his history that was designed as a continuation of Eusebius, \"Also in writing the life of Constantine, this same author has but slightly treated of matters regarding Arius, being more intent on the rhetorical finish of his composition and the praises of the emperor, than on an accurate statement of facts.\" The work was unfinished at Eusebius' death.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEusebius of Caesarea (c. AD 263 – 339) also called Eusebius Pamphili, was a Roman historian, exegete and Christian polemicist. He became the Bishop of Caesarea in Palestine about the year 314. Together with Pamphilus, he was a scholar of the Biblical canon. He wrote Demonstrations of the Gospel, Preparations for the Gospel, and On Discrepancies between the Gospels, studies of the Biblical text. As “Father of Church History” he produced the Ecclesiastical History, On the Life of Pamphilus, the Chronicle and On the Martyrs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLittle is known about the life of Eusebius. His successor at the see of Caesarea, Acacius, wrote a Life of Eusebius, but this work has been lost. Eusebius' own surviving works probably only represent a small portion of his total output. Since he was on the losing side of the long 4th-century contest between the allies and enemies of Arianism (Eusebius was an early and vocal supporter of Arius), posterity did not have much respect for Eusebius' person and was neglectful in the preservation of his writings.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou can purchase other religious works directly from Wyatt North Publishing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnjoy.","brand":"Bieber Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47172207509744,"sku":"2940013289956","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013289956_p0.jpg?v=1763579360","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013289956","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
