Describing vividly the Alexandrian-Roman era, E. Tseller and G. Nestle in the History of Greek Philosophy (transl. H. Theodoridis) mention that the societies of the Greek cities, having acquired a cosmopolitan character, lived with metaphysical anxiety.
At that time, science was separated from philosophy, and the latter approached religion, while Hellenized Easterners appeared in the Athenian philosophical schools as students or even teachers. At that time, an Asian spermologist, Apostle Paul, appeared before the Areopagus and spoke of an unknown God. He seemed to be a bearer of Greek education. They listened to him with pleasure, but when he mentioned the Resurrection, they took him down from the podium.
The Church of Christ prevailed, but the message of the Resurrection waned. In modern times, philosophy has once again reunited with science. The educated and uneducated people of contemporary cosmopolitan societies are not concerned with the words of the Apostle. This work attempts to probe the reaction of the Areopagites as well as the stance of the modern person towards such a joyful message.
