In the earliestApologetics there was already criticism of pagan prophesying, and this remained present withgreater or lesser intensity throughout the life of the genre. The particular religious and spiritualcontext of the second century was favourable to the existence of oracles with a theological content,concerning the destiny of the soul, divine worship, the nature and characteristics of divinity andsimilar topics, a long way from the traditional consultations about material life.
