Tatian's Address To The Greeks is a book written by Tatian, a second-century Christian apologist. The book is a defense of Christianity against the criticisms of Greek philosophy and religion. Tatian argues that Christianity is the only true religion and that Greek philosophy and religion are inadequate in addressing the spiritual needs of humanity. He also critiques the immoral practices and beliefs of the Greeks, such as their acceptance of homosexuality and their worship of multiple gods. The book is written in a rhetorical style and is divided into several sections, including a refutation of Greek philosophy, an explanation of Christian doctrine, and a defense of the Old Testament. Tatian's Address To The Greeks is an important work in early Christian apologetics and provides valuable insights into the relationship between Christianity and Greek philosophy and religion.But further, it becomes us now to seek for what we once had, but have lost, to unite the soul with the Holy Spirit, and to strive after union with God. The human soul consists of many parts, and is not simple; it is composite, so as to manifest itself through the body; for neither could it ever appear by itself without the body, nor does the flesh rise again without the soul. Man is not, as the croaking philosophers say, merely a rational animal, capable of understanding and knowledge; for, according to them, even irrational creatures appear possessed of understanding and knowledge.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
