One of the first great events in Christian history was the Council
of Nicaea in 325 AD, convened to organize Christian sects and
beliefs into a unified doctrine. The great Christian clergymen who
wrote before this famous event are referred to as the Ante-Nicenes
and the Apostolic Fathers, and their writings are collected here in
a ten-volume set. The Ante-Nicenes lived so close to the time of
Christ that their interpretations of the New Testament are
considered more authentic than modern voices. But they are also
real and flawed men, who are more like their fellow Christians than
they are like the Apostles, making their words echo in the ears of
spiritual seekers. In Volume IX of the 10-volume collected works of
the Ante-Nicenes first published between 1885 and 1896, the series
editors return to a collection that they had thought complete.
Archaeological discoveries presented them with new early Christian
texts that needed publication. This volume is divided into two
parts: newly discovered fragments and writings from a variety of
sources, and additional commentaries by Origen. These new fragments
include: . the Gospel of Peter and the Apocalypse of Peter. the
Diatessaron of Tatian and the Vision of Paul. the Apocalypse of the
Virgin and the Apocalypse of Sedrach. The Testament of Abraham and
the Acts of Xanthippe and Polyxena. the Narrative of Zosimus and
the Epistles of Clement. the Apology of Aristides the Philosopher.
the Passion of the Scillitan Martyrs. epistle to Gregory and
Origen's commentary
