The book ''The Apostolic Fathers And The Apologists Of The Second Century'' by George A. Jackson is a comprehensive study of the early Christian writings of the Apostolic Fathers and the Apologists of the second century. The author provides an in-depth analysis of the historical context, theology, and literary style of these important Christian texts. The Apostolic Fathers were a group of early Christian writers who lived in the first and second centuries AD, and who were believed to have had direct contact with the apostles of Jesus Christ. The Apologists, on the other hand, were Christian writers who defended the faith against attacks from pagan philosophers and other critics. In this book, Jackson examines the writings of both groups, including the letters of Ignatius of Antioch, the Epistle of Barnabas, the Shepherd of Hermas, and the works of Justin Martyr, Tertullian, and Irenaeus. He explores the theological themes and ideas that emerge from these texts, including the nature of God, Christology, the sacraments, and eschatology. The book also provides a historical context for these writings, discussing the political and social conditions of the time, as well as the intellectual and cultural milieu in which they were written. Jackson also examines the literary style of these texts, showing how they were influenced by Greek and Roman literary traditions. Overall, ''The Apostolic Fathers And The Apologists Of The Second Century'' is a valuable resource for scholars and students of early Christianity, providing a detailed and nuanced analysis of these important texts and their significance for the development of Christian theology and practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
