Dialogue with Trypho

Book • 2015
The Dialogue with Trypho is an apologetic text by Justin Martyr, written in the mid-2nd century.

It depicts a debate between Justin, a Christian philosopher, and Trypho, a learned Jew, in Ephesus.

Justin argues for the validity of Christianity by interpreting Old Testament prophecies as foreshadowing Jesus Christ.

He addresses various Jewish objections to Christian beliefs, such as the divinity of Christ and the abrogation of Mosaic Law. The dialogue covers a wide range of theological and philosophical topics, including the nature of God, the Messiah, and the relationship between Judaism and Christianity.

It provides valuable insights into early Christian thought and the interactions between Christians and Jews in the Roman Empire.
