Opis

Eusebius of Caesarea (d. 339) is our major witness to the triumph of Christianity in the early fourth century. His commentary on the book of Isaiah has only been available to modern scholars since 1975. This first comprehensive commentary examines how Eusebius interpreted Isaiah in the context of Constantine's conversion.
