Origen Against Celsus V2 is a book written by Origen, a Christian theologian who lived in the 3rd century AD. The book is a response to the work of Celsus, a Greek philosopher who wrote a critique of Christianity called The True Doctrine. Origen's book is a defense of Christianity against Celsus' arguments, and it covers a wide range of topics including the nature of God, the divinity of Jesus, the resurrection, and the afterlife. The book is written in a scholarly style and includes extensive quotations from both the Bible and classical literature. It is considered one of the most important works of early Christian apologetics and is still studied today by scholars of religion and philosophy.Celsus, however, accepting or granting that Jesus foreknew what would befall Him, might think to make light of the admission, as he did in the case of the miracles, when he alleged that they were wrought by means of sorcery; for he might say that many persons by means of divination, either by auspices, or auguries, or sacrifices, or nativities, have come to the knowledge of what was to happen.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
