	Eusebius of Caesarea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eusebius of Caesarea (~275 – May 30, 339) (often called Eusebius Pamphili, "Eusebius [the friend] of Pamphilus") was a bishop of Caesarea in Palestine and is often referred to as the father of church history because of his work in recording the history of the early Christian church.
		Eustathius was accused, condemned and deposed at a synod in Antioch.
		Eusebius' Life of Constantine (Vita Constantini) is a eulogy and therefore its style and selection of facts are affected by its purpose, rendering it inadequate as a continuation of the Church History.

		At a date which cannot be fixed Eusebius made the acquaintance of Pamphilus, the founder of the magnificent library which remained for several centuries the great glory of the Church of Cæsarea.
		Eusebius survived him long enough to write his Life and two treatises against Marcellus, but by the summer of 341 he was already dead, since it was his successor, Acacius, who assisted as Bishop of Cæsarea at a synod held at Antioch in the summer of that year.
		Constantia asked Eusebius to send her a certain likeness of Christ of which she had heard; his refusal was couched in terms which centuries afterwards were appealed to by the Iconoclasts.

		Eusebius wished it to be understood that he started with a well-ordered programme of Scriptural exposition, and did not intend to be drawn aside into detailed controversy on points that had been raised by individual controversialists.
		Eusebius is defending the Gospel of a divine Christ; the merely human Christ is One Whose character implies the divine as well; and He is the source and stay of moral progress.
		Eusebius uses the well-worn similes of the Apologists: the relation of the Father to the Son is as light to its ray, as myrrh to its scent, as a king to his portrait.

		Out of devotion to his memory Eusebius called himself Eusebius Pamphili, meaning, probably, that he wished to be regarded as the bondsman of him whose name "it is not meet that I should mention … without styling him my lord" (Mart.
		He had many enemies, yet the charge of cowardice was never seriously made — the best proof that it could not have been sustained.

		Eusebius was a very important figure in the church of his day.
		To this length Eusebius himself was unwilling to go, and so, convinced that he had misunderstood Arius, and that the teaching of the latter was imperilling the historic belief in the divinity of Christ, he gave his support to the opposition,and voted for the Nicene Creed, in which the teachings of the Arians were repudiated.
		The death of Constantine followed hard upon that of Arius; and Eusebius, who was promoted in 339 to the see of Constantinople, became the leader of the anti-Nicene party till his own death in (probably) 341.

		In the controversy over Arianism, Eusebius favored the semi-Arian views of Eusebius of Nicomedia, and he once gave refuge to Arius.
		A simple baptismal creed submitted by Eusebius at the First Council of Nicaea (325) formed the basis of what became known as the Nicean Creed; it was amended with the Greek word homoousios [consubstantial, of the same substance] to define the Son’s relationship with the Father.
		Eusebius considered this addition to the creed as reflecting the ideas of Sabellius, which he opposed.

		At the beginning of the period of Christian persecution, Eusebius started a great project of a series of books dealing with the history and philosophy of Christianity and covering the period of Church history from the apostolic age to the reign of Constantine.
		Eusebius briefly mentioned Mani, whom he called a "madman," and his religion, which he considered a "perverse heterodoxy" and "a devil-possessed heresy," as well as "a deadly poison that came from the land of the Persians" (Hist.

		EUSEBIUS was one of the most voluminous writers of antiquity, and his labors covered almost every field of theological learning.
		That the composition of a history of the Church was Eusebius' own idea, and was not due to any suggestion from without, seems clear, both from the absence of reference to any one else as prompting it, and from the lack of a dedication at the beginning of the work.
		Eusebius' critics are wont to condemn him severely for what they are pleased to call the dishonesty displayed by him in his Vita Constantini.

		Although Eusebius leaves much to be desired as an exegete or an apologist for Christianity, he had one quality that was lacking in all his predecessors and contemporaries -- the instinct for historical research.
		The 'Father of Church History' had at his disposal the library at Caesarea which Origen had built up after he had been forced to leave Alexandria and take up residence in Palestine.
		6.20.1), Eusebius indulged his appetite for Christian antiquities, and began the task of collecting and organizing material covering the history of the Church, chiefly in the East, during the previous 3 centuries.

		The Council restored Eusebius of Caesarea but produced a sharply anti-Arian creed affirming that the Father and the Son were "homoousios," "of one substance." The creed was accepted almost unanimously, however, the crucial term, "homoousios" was ambiguous enough to admit quite different readings.
		In 335, Eusebius negotiated the deposition of Athanasius and, in 337, baptized the dying Constantine.

		An earlier history by Hegesippus that Eusebius referred to sadly did not survive.
		For instance, in the dispute with Eustathius of Antioch, who opposed the growing influence of Origen and his practice of an allegorical exegesis of scripture, seeing in his theology the roots of Arianism, Eusebius, an admirer of Origen, was reproached by Eustathius for deviating from the Nicene faith, and was charged in turn with Sabellianism.

		Throughout the city of Caesarea, by command of the governor, the heralds were summoning men, women, and children to the temples of the idols, and besides this, the chiliarchs were calling out each one by name from a roll, and an immense crowd of the wicked were rushing together from all quarters.
		Of these the leader and the only one honored with the position of presbyter at Caesarea, was Pamphilus; a man who through his entire life was celebrated for every virtue, for renouncing and despising the world, for sharing his possessions with the needy, for contempt of earthly hopes, and for philosophic deportment and exercise.

	Eusebius, Ecclesiastical History
		Eusebius of Caesarea in Palestine (the Roman empire offered many cities with the name), sometimes known as 'Pamphilus' or the 'son of Pamphilus,' was born a little after A.D. 260, became bishop of Caesarea about 313 and lived there until his death in 339.
		Indeed, one of the problems with any study of Eusebius is the number and the dating of the editions of his works.
		Eusebius devotes a considerable portion of his ecclesiastical history, particularly the first seven books (which he finished before the Great Persecution of Diocletianic times), to doctrinal matters and heresy, the successions of bishops, etc.
