Der Sammelband enthalt dreizehn Aufsatze von Hanns Christof Brennecke, die zeigen, wie das Christentum der Kaiserzeit und der Spatantike in den Kontext des Imperium Romanum eingebettet ist. Das Themenspektrum reicht von den fruhen Auseinandersetzungen zwischen Christentum und der paganen Welt uber trinitatstheologische und christologische Fragen bis zu Analysen des syrischen Moenchtums. Die Aufsatze haben aufgrund ihrer detaillierten Quellenanalysen die Forschung nachhaltig beeinflusst.
