Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a compelling account of a martyrdom at the hands of the Romans during the reign of Emperor Valerian. It is based upon the discovery of early texts that describe the capture, torture, and executions of two Christian men. The first part includes a discussion of the historical context surrounding these documents as well as an overview of how the Roman policy of religious persecution was implemented in different parts of the empire. In addition to providing a window onto ancient history, this book also explores the spiritual crisis that faced those who adhered to Christianity in an era of violence. The author demonstrates that the path taken by the book's subjects was a common response to imperial persecution, and that their experiences offer insight into the nature of early Christian life and faith.
