Justin also makes himself into a philosopher of history and offers the theory that the defeats of the Jews in the wars against Rome, both in the year 70, and again in 135, were God's visitation of a deserved punishment, because they had sinned so grievously by crucifying Christ and rejecting his new faith.

Justin gloated as he contemplated the destruction of Jerusalem and the collapse of the Jewish struggle for freedom, and he taunted Trypho with this sweeping assertion:

"All this has happened to you rightly and well, For ye slew the Just One and His
prophets before Him, and now ye reject, and … dishonor those who set their hopes
on Him, and God Almighty and Maker of the universe who sent Him …" (Dial.
16:3–4).
