Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Apostolic Fathers The term Apostolic Fathers would mean, in its proper sense, the disciples of the Apostles of our Lord who succeeded them in the government of the Christian Church. It is, however, usually applied only to those who have left, or are supposed to have left, works behind them. These, according to the generally received account, are S. Clement of Rome, S. Barnabas, who was the disciple of S. Paul, S. Ignatius, bishop of Antioch, S. Polycarp, bishop of Smyrna, and Papias, bishop of Hierapolis ;to these, at an earlier period, would have been added Dionysius the Areopagite. but the works that bear his name are now generally acknowledged to be spurious. Had even the writings of the first mentioned come down to us in a trustworthy state, we should have possessed a considerable body of literature illustrating the most interesting period of Church history. Unfortunately, this is not the case. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
