In The Apostolic Fathers, you are invited to explore the primary source documents that bridge the gap between the New Testament and the established Church of the later centuries. This comprehensive collection features the voices of the immediate successors to the Apostles-men who were taught by the very eyes and ears that witnessed the ministry of Christ. These were the leaders, martyrs, and visionaries who navigated the Church through its first great internal and external crises, defining what it meant to be a follower of the Way in a hostile pagan world.
This volume assembles every major work from this pivotal era, including the First and Second Epistles of Clement, the Seven Epistles of Ignatius of Antioch, the Epistle of Polycarp, the Didache (The Lord's Teaching Through the Twelve Apostles), the Epistle of Barnabas, the Papias fragments, and the Shepherd of Hermas. Unlike later theological treatises, these writings are urgent, pastoral, and deeply personal. They reveal the struggles over Church organization, the fight against early heresies, the development of the Eucharist, and the unwavering courage of those facing the lion's den.
This modern edition brings these ancient Greek and Latin treasures to life for today's readers, offering a rare opportunity to engage with the actual words that formed the bedrock of Christian civilization. Whether you are a student of Church history, a devoted believer seeking your roots, or a scholar of the Roman world, The Apostolic Fathers provides an unparalleled look at the birth of a global movement.
What You'll Discover Inside:
- The Didache and Early Liturgy - Explore the oldest known manual of Christian practice and the origins of baptism and the Eucharist.
- The Letters of Ignatius - Read the soaring and powerful epistles of a bishop on his way to martyrdom in Rome.
- The Shepherd of Hermas - Dive into a profound and popular early work of visions, mandates, and parables regarding repentance and the Christian life.
- The Foundations of Church Order - Understand how the early leaders established the hierarchy of bishops, priests, and deacons to preserve the Apostolic tradition.
- The Epistles of Clement and Polycarp - Gain insight into the earliest efforts to maintain unity and discipline across the diverse communities of the Roman Empire.
Whether you are exploring this work for its immense historical value, its role in the development of doctrine, or its spiritual intensity, The Apostolic Fathers offers an unforgettable journey into the heart of the primitive Church.

The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,

KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract.

Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
