He saw this triumphal procession as Christ’s, as he went to a conquering death. As Christ’s death brought about reconciliation between Jew and Gentile, Ignatius hoped that his death, united with Christ’s, would bring about reconciliation within and among the churches to which he wrote.Two centuries later, when the Arian controversy further divided the Antiochene church, an unknown writer took on the persona of Ignatius to appeal for peace.As today the church is more than ever divided, Fr Stewart presents a fresh English version of both Ignatius and his imitator, with the Greek of Ignatius, and concise introductions to the letters. The most recent research on Ignatius is accessibly presented, and the first English version of the imitation Ignatius is here made available to students, to clergy, and to the people of God.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USAuthor: St Ignatius of AntiochGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityBook Series: Popular Patristics SeriesISBN-10: 0881414646Item Length: 25mmItem Height: 190mmType: Christian LivingRelease Year: 2014 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
