Works Tertullian (160-220) De fuga in persecutione Elucidations - De Fuga in Persecutione

II.

(To the fearful, p. 120.)

In the Patientia 1 Tertullian reflects the views of Catholics, and seems to allow those "persecuted in one city to flee to another." So also in the Ad Uxorem, 2 as instanced by Kaye. 3 In the Fuga we have the enthusiast, but not as Gibbon will have it, 4 the most wild and fanatical of declaimers. On the whole subject we again refer our readers to the solid and sober comments of Kaye on the martyrdoms and persecutions of the early faithful, and on the patristic views of the same.
