PERSECUTION OF EARLY CHRISTIANS


“[Nero] punished with the utmost refinements of cruelty, a class of men, loathed for their vices [as the Romans viewed matters], whom the crowd styled Christians. . . . First, then, the confessed members of the sect were arrested; next, on their disclosures, vast numbers were convicted, not so much on the count of arson as for hatred of the human race. And derision accompanied their end: they were covered with wild beasts’ skins and torn to death by dogs; or they were fastened on crosses, and, when daylight failed were burned to serve as lamps by night.” - Annals 15.44, Tacitus (Roman historian, 2nd century A.D

“Punishment was inflicted on the Christians, a class of men given to a new and mischievous superstition.”—The Lives of the Caesars, Suetonius (Nero, XVI, 2).

“We saw with our very eyes the houses of prayer cast down to their foundations from top to bottom, and the inspired and sacred Scriptures committed to the flames in the midst of the market-places.” - Eusebius of Caesarea, Palestine, 2nd Century
