Sextus (theologian)

Sextus (Greek: Σέξτος, romanized: Sextos; fl. c. AD 196) was a Christian theologian of the late 2nd century.[1][2]

In Jerome's De viris illustribus, he writes that Sextus lived during the reign of Septimius Severus (i.e. late 2nd century), and that he wrote on the topic of the Resurrection of Jesus.[3] He is also mentioned by Eusebius for the same work.[4]
