Didache: The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles

by Anonymous

The Didache, also known as the 'Teaching of the Twelve Apostles,' is an ancient Christian text that offers practical guidance for early Christians. It outlines two paths, one leading to life and the other to death, emphasizing moral conduct and the importance of living a life aligned with God's will. The text also provides instructions on various religious practices, including baptism, fasting, and the celebration of the Eucharist. It further addresses the structure and roles within the early church, including the roles of apostles, prophets, teachers, and bishops. The Didache serves as a valuable source for understanding the beliefs and practices of early Christianity, offering insights into the evolving Christian tradition in the first centuries after the life of Jesus.
