Early Christian Writings: The Apostolic Fathers by Andrew Louth (Penguin Classics)
Requirements: .ePUB or .MOBI Reader | 1.6 MB
Overview: The writings in this volume cast a glimmer of light upon the emerging traditions and organization of the infant church, during an otherwise little-known period of its development. A selection of letters and small-scale theological treatises from a group known as the Apostolic Fathers, several of whom were probably disciples of the Apostles, they provide a first-hand account of the early Church and outline a form of early Christianity still drawing on the theology and traditions of its parent religion, Judaism. Included here are the first Epistle of Bishop Clement of Rome, an impassioned plea for harmony; The Epistle of Polycarp; The Epistle of Barnabas; The Didache; and the Seven Epistles written by Ignatius of Antioch – among them his moving appeal to the Romans that they grant him a martyr’s death.
Includes:
The First Epistle of Clement to the Corinthians
The Epistles of Ignatius
The Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians and The Martyrdom of Polycarp
The Epistle to Diognetus
