Apollonius of Tyana, Volume III - Letters of Apollonius. Ancient Testimonia. Eusebius¿s Reply to Hierocles

In his Life of Apollonius, Philostratus (second to third century CE) portrays a first-century CE teacher, religious reformer, and perceived rival to Jesus. Apollonius's letters, ancient reports about him, and a letter by Eusebius (fourth century CE) that is now central to the history of Philostratus's work add to the portrait.
