The Seven Books of Arnobius Adversus Gentes is a book written by Arnobius, a Christian apologist who lived in the 3rd century AD. The book is a defense of Christianity against the pagan religions of the time. It is divided into seven books, each of which addresses a different aspect of the pagan worldview and refutes it from a Christian perspective. The first book deals with the existence of God, the second with the nature of God, the third with the problem of evil, the fourth with the immortality of the soul, the fifth with the resurrection of the dead, the sixth with the worship of idols, and the seventh with the relationship between Christianity and the Roman Empire. Arnobius argues that Christianity is the only true religion and that the pagan gods are nothing more than human inventions. He also defends Christianity against accusations of immorality and treason. The book is an important work of early Christian apologetics and provides insight into the religious and intellectual climate of the Roman Empire in the 3rd century AD.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
