This volume, which includes the first four books, surveys human history from the Creation to the life, teaching, and resurrection of Christ. Book I begins with the creation and fall of man in the Biblical account. There follows a long digression adversus gentes (the Gentiles, i.e., pagans), which reviews central points of ancient Greek and Roman philosophy and religion, and censures the ancients for their senseless doctrines and bloody rites. Manetti then returns to the Jews, whose beliefs and practices are praised from Abraham to Moses. During their centuries of "true" piety, Manetti calls the chosen people "Hebrews." But from the time of the Exodus onwards, he censures them as "Jews" because they observe the absurd and cruel practices of Pentateuchal legislation, which he views as analogous to pagan rites. Manetti stresses several themes in Jewish history: the early development of the concept of righteousness, the Exodus, the Mosaic Law and its inadequacy--thus providing a "preparation for the Gospel" in Eusebius' sense. The next three books provide a synoptic biography of Jesus in three stages. Book II describes the life of Christ up to the raising of Lazarus; Book III relates his teaching, and Book IV offers an account of Christ's passion, death, and resurrection.--$$cProvided by publisher. 000809051 546__ $$aText in Latin with English translation on facing pages ; introduction and notes in English. 000809051 650_0 $$aChristian philosophy. 000809051 650_0 $$aJewish philosophy. 000809051 650_0 $$aPhilosophy, Ancient. 000809051 7001_ $$aBaldassarri, Stefano Ugo,$$eeditor. 000809051 7001_ $$aPagliara, Daniela,$$eeditor. 000809051 7001_ $$aMarsh, David,$$d1950 September 25-$$etranslator. 000809051 70012 $$iContainer of (expression):$$aManetti, Giannozzo,$$d1396-1459.$$tAdversus Iudaeos et Gentes. 000809051 70012 $$iContainer of (expression):$$aManetti, Giannozzo,$$d1396-1459.$$tAdversus Iudaeos et Gentes.$$lEnglish. 000809051 830_0 $$aI Tatti Renaissance library ;$$v79. 000809051 85201 $$bgen$$hB785.M2443$$iA38$$i2017 000809051 86631 $$av.1 000809051 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:809051$$pGLOBAL_SET 000809051 980__ $$aBIB 000809051 980__ $$aBOOK
