Description

• Foreign and deprecated words defined • Author biography • List of author’s other works The Writings of the Apostolic Fathers is a collection of early Christian works from the late 1st and early 2nd centuries that provide insight into the beliefs, practices, and organization of the post-apostolic Church. These writings emphasize themes like church unity, obedience to leadership, moral living, and the preservation of apostolic teaching. They reflect a transitional period in Christianity, bridging the New Testament era and later theological developments, and reveal how early Christians addressed persecution, heresy, and internal discipline. Some of the Apostolic Fathers sat under the actual Apostles. Clement was believed to have been ordained by Peter, and was most likely the same individual mentioned by Paul in Philippians 4:3. Polycarp, Ignatius, and Papias were all said to be disciples of John. And Ignatius was said to have been one of the children who Jesus blessed in Matthew 19:14.
