The Apostolic Fathers is an important collection of writings revered by early Christians but not included in the final canon of the New Testament.
This neat and handy one-volume, thin-paper edition, with a ribbon marker and reader-friendly page layout, will be an essential resource for New Testament students and scholars.
Here a leading expert on these texts offers an authoritative contemporary translation, in the tradition of the magisterial Lightfoot version but thoroughly up-to-date.
The third edition features numerous changes, including carefully revised translations and a new, more user-friendly design. The introduction, notes and bibliographies have been freshly revised as well.
