Sulpicius Severus°
SULPICIUS SEVERUS°
SULPICIUS SEVERUS ° (fourth century), Christian writer. Severus used the Bible and classical authors in his history of the world. He sees the siege of Jerusalem in 70 c.e. as divine retribution for the Jews' part in the crucifixion of Jesus. He disagrees with Josephus (perhaps following a lost passage from Tacitus) and blames Titus for the destruction of the Temple (Chronica 2:30).
