==References == | <p> <b> Rhodo (1), </b> a [[Christian]] writer of the end of the 2nd cent., our knowledge, of whom now exclusively depends on the account of his writings, and some extracts from them in [[Eusebius]] ( <i> [[H.]] [[E.]] </i> v. 13). He was a native of Asia, converted to [[Christianity]] at Rome by Tatian, as he himself says in a treatise against [[Marcion]] addressed to Callistion. In it he tells of the sects into which the [[Marcionites]] split up after Marcion's death, and gives an interesting account of an oral controversy held by him with the Marcionite [[Apelles,]] then an old man. He mentions a book of "Problems" published by Tatian, intended to exhibit the obscurity of the [[Holy]] Scriptures, and promise to give the solutions; but Eusebius does not seem to have met with this work. He also wrote a treatise on the Hexaemeron. Through a lapse of memory [[Jerome]] ( <i> de Vir. Ill. </i> ) speaks of him as author of the anonymous treatise against the [[Montanists]] from which Eusebius makes extracts ( <i> [[H.]] [[E.]] </i> v. 16). </p> <p> [[[G.S.]]] </p> | ||
