| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Justin Martyr |
 | | Justin was condemned to death by the prefect, Rusticus, towards A.D. 165, with six companions, Chariton, Charito, Evelpostos, Pæon, Hierax, and Liberianos. |
 | | Justin replies that according to the Prophets themselves the law should be abrogated, it had only been given to the Jews on account of their hardness. |
 | | It is, of course, to Christian revelation that Justin owes his concept of the distinct personality of the Word, His Divinity and Incarnation; but philosophic speculation is responsible for his unfortunate concepts of the temporal and voluntary generation of the Word, and for the subordinationism of Justin's theology. |
