Laura Nasrallah argues that early Christian literature addressed to Greeks and Romans is best understood when read in tandem with the archaeology of Roman antiquity. Early Christians discussed justice, piety and God's image in the midst of sculptures and monumental architecture asserting the Roman imperial family's justice, piety and divinity.
