- W2269522093 abstract "Born a peasant of the Balkans and elevated to the highest station on earth, the Roman Emperor Justinian produced perhaps the second most important writing in the history of the world. His faithfulness to God in the work God had put before him produced fruit that nourishes man and glorifies God to this day, one and one half millennia later.

The death of the emperor in 518 led to the elevation of Justin himself to the Purple. By then, the 36-year-old Justinian had become well prepared to guide his uncle, if not in fact to reign through him. 2 (Actually, it seems Justinian was offered the throne himself before Justin, but declined in favor of the old soldier. Some say this was to give himself a trial run at ruling the empire.) Justin made his nephew Caesar, and then Augustus--his official co-ruler. When Justin's wife, Euphemia, died, Justinian was able to" @default.
