Justin Martyr
Aristides is the second Greek Christian apologetic of the 2nd century. His writing style and thesis are very similar to the likes of Quadratus, Aristo of Pella, Justin Martyr and the author of the "Epistle to Diognetus". Jerome suggests Aristides's apology was the combined opinions of philosophers at the time and imitated by Justin Martyr afterwards. Negatively, Celsus used the "Apology" for his arguments against the Jews and "also certain features which he used in order to scoff at Providence." However, he was easily countered by Origen.
