About this listen
Let us reflect, then, upon the epoch to which we have now come. The intense sufferings, labors, and intellectual, as well as moral struggles, of the three heroic centuries, are closing, and Alexander of Alexandria is the grand figure of the period.
Diocletian is preparing to let loose upon the sheep of Christ the ferocious wolves of the tenth persecution. Lucian is founding the school of Antioch, revising the New Testament, and, in fact, the whole Bible of the Fathers, for his labors included the version of the Seventy.
Unhappily, the ambitious Arius, who calls him master, has begun to trouble the evangelical See of St. Mark; and Achillas, notwithstanding the warnings of Peter, has laid hands upon him, and made him a presbyter. He aspires to be made a bishop.
