The Didache & the Apostolic Fathers

Clement, Ignatius, Polycarp et al.. The Church’s earliest writings after the New Testament.

  1. Best overall: Michael W. Holmes, The Apostolic Fathers: Greek Texts and English Translations (3rd ed.) (Baker Academic)
  2. English only: Holmes, The Apostolic Fathers in English (Baker Academic)

Also good: Jimmy Akin’s The Fathers Know Best (Catholic Answers) is a topical guide to what the early Fathers taught.
