{"product_id":"disciplinary-moral-and-ascetical-works-9780813215662","title":"Disciplinary, Moral, and Ascetical Works","description":"This volume contains seven works of the zealously ascetical Christian writer of third-century Carthage, Tertullian. The first five works, composed during his Catholic period, offer detailed, strict instruction on Christian conduct, demeanor, and dress, as well as exhortations to persevere. Participation in the pagan entertainments of Roman society is ruled out. The final two essays in the volume are products of Tertullian's Montanist years, that is, his final phase. In them he rejects absolutely any possibility of Christians in public service, whether military or civil, as well as any attempt to escape from persecutors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tertullian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Catholic University of America Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/26\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.73d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780813215662","brand":"Catholic University of America Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40609011138675,"sku":"9.78081E+12","price":67.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_d7c0f47c-fbc8-4dc4-a99f-599a633ad7a2.jpg?v=1669733162","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/disciplinary-moral-and-ascetical-works-9780813215662","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
