'Didache' Summary
The Didache, also known as the Teaching of the Twelve Apostles, is a significant early Christian text that offers instructions and guidance for Christian communities. Dated to the late 1st or early 2nd century, it contains three main sections: Christian lessons, rituals like baptism and communion, and the structure of the Church. While some Church Fathers considered it part of the New Testament, others deemed it spurious or non-canonical, resulting in its exclusion from the New Testament canon except for the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. The Roman Catholic Church, however, recognizes it as part of the Apostolic Fathers collection. The Didache is a valuable resource for understanding the development of early Christianity and the practices of its nascent communities.Book Details
