Constitutions of the Holy Apostles (Books 1 to 3)

by Anonymous

The Apostolic Constitutions is a collection of eight treatises written in the 4th century, attributed to the Twelve Apostles, that aims to provide guidance on Early Christian practices, worship, and doctrine. It draws heavily from existing sources such as the Didache and the Didascalia Apostolorum, offering instructions for the clergy and laity on matters of church organization, liturgical rites, and moral conduct. The work includes sections on the sacraments, discipline, prayer, and the role of charismata (spiritual gifts) in the early church. It also presents a collection of 'Canons of the Apostles', which are rules for church governance and behavior.
