Description
The Apostolic Fathers by Bart D. Ehrman is a collection of enduring and influential early Christian texts that provide a rich picture of Christian life and thought in the period immediately after New Testament times. This new Loeb edition features current idiom and the latest scholarship, making it an ideal resource for understanding the theology and practices of early Christianity. The collection includes notable documents such as Ignatius' letters to various congregations, Polycarp's letter to the Philippian church, and the account of his martyrdom. The Apostolic Fathers also features a range of texts that represent different religious outlooks, including the manual known as the Didache, which sets forth precepts for religious instruction and worship, and The Shepherd of Hermas, a book of revelations that develops a doctrine of repentance.
