Age of Persecution

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Although there have been many persecutions, The Age of Persecution began in A. D. 64 with the persecution of Christians in Rome by Nero and ended in A. D. 313 with Constantine's Edict of Milan. This period was critical in the development of the Early Church.
