"Christian apologist" . "Arnobius the Elder"@en . . "Arnobius"@en . "Arnobius of Sicca (died c. 330) was an Early Christian apologist, during the reign of Diocletian (284\u2013305). According to Jerome's Chronicle, Arnobius, before his conversion, was a distinguished Numidian rhetorician at Sicca Veneria (El Kef, Tunisia), a major Christian center in Proconsular Africa, and owed his conversion to a premonitory dream. Arnobius writes dismissively of dreams in his surviving book, so perhaps Jerome was projecting his own respect for the content of dreams."@en . . . . "0330Z"^^ .
