Reviews

It will surely be of good use to you all. , Adolf Martin Ritter, Theologische Literaturzeitung , Vol. 141, No. 7/8, July/August 2016 This insightful book contains seven essays by scholars who compare and contrast existing knowledge about Emperor Constantine with their original research findings. Their more authentic portrayal of this emperor treats him as a most powerful person in the Roman military, politics and governance. Yet, he faced many theological and doctrinal challenges that he found hard to comprehend and manage. -Daniel Jeyaraj, Theological Book Review, Vol. 26 No.2, 2016 It will surely be of good use to you all. -Adolf Martin Ritter, Theologische Literaturzeitung , Vol. 141, No. 7/8, July/August 2016
