Book Overview

""Dialogue of Justin, Philosopher and Martyr with Trypho a Jew"" is a religious text written by early Christian apologist Justin Martyr in the second century AD. The book is a dialogue between Justin, a Christian philosopher and martyr, and Trypho, a Jewish interlocutor. The dialogue centers around the question of whether Jesus is the Messiah prophesied in the Jewish scriptures. Justin argues that Jesus is the fulfillment of these prophecies and that Christianity is the true religion, while Trypho defends Judaism and challenges Justin's arguments. The book provides insight into the early Christian-Jewish debates and offers a glimpse into the religious and philosophical ideas of the time. Justin's arguments and Trypho's objections are presented in a respectful and courteous manner, making the book an excellent example of interfaith dialogue. The ""Dialogue of Justin, Philosopher and Martyr with Trypho a Jew"" is an important work in the history of Christian apologetics and a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the early Christian-Jewish relations.If you remain in that mode of philosophy, and live blamelessly, a hope of a better destiny were left to you; but when you have forsaken God, and reposed confidence in man, what safety still awaits you? If, then, you are willing to listen to me (for I have already considered you a friend), first be circumcised, then observe what ordinances have been enacted with respect to the Sabbath, and the feasts, and the new moons of God; and, in a word, do all things which have been written in the law: and then perhaps you shall obtain mercy from God.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
