An ancient Roman history text, translated by Charles Yonge, and written by the Greek philosopher Philo of Alexandria. The Embassy to Gaius was a meeting between Gaius Caligula, the then Roman Emperor, and a large contingent of Jews. They wished to overturn Gaius' plans to have a huge statue of Zeus installed in the temple. Gaius' hatred of the Jews is legendary. This book is important because it helps to understand the relations between Jews and Romans in the first century A.D.

Eusebius of Emesa was a highly educated Christian cleric of the Greek-speaking church in Syriac, and a pupil of the famous Eusebius of Caesarea. After receiving his early education in his native town, he studied theology at Caesarea in Palestine and Antioch, and philosophy and science at Alexandria. Eusebius accepted the small episcopal see of Emesa, but his powers as mathematician and astronomer led his flock to accuse him of practicing sorcery, and he had to flee to Laodicea. Some of his sermons survive to the present day in various form, mostly in Latin and Armenian texts. This collection of three sermons that are attributed to him come from a Latin collection and relate to his theological speculation on the death and resurrection of Christ.
