Eusebius of Caesarea, ca. 260-340 CE, born in Palestine, was a
student of the presbyter Pamphilus whom he loyally supported during
Diocletian's persecution. He was himself imprisoned in Egypt, but
became Bishop of Caesarea about 314. At the Council of Nicaea in
325 he sat by the emperor, led a party of moderates, and made the
first draft of the famous creed.
Of Eusebius's many learned publications we have "Martyrs of
Palestine" and "Life of Constantine;" several apologetic and
polemic works; parts of his commentaries on the Psalms and Isaiah;
and the Chronographia, known chiefly in Armenian and Syriac
versions of the original Greek. But Eusebius's chief fame rests on
the "History of the Christian Church" in ten books published in
324-325, the most important ecclesiastical history of ancient
times, a great treasury of knowledge about the early Church.
