Utilizing archeological evidence and an analysis of two early
Christian texts related to the church at Rome, James S. Jeffers
offers a penetrating glimpse into the economic, social, and
theological tensions of early Roman Christianity. Clement and the
Shepherd of Hermas are shown to represent two decidedly conflicting
conceptions of Christianity and hierarchy: Clement represents the
social elite and a more structured approach to church organization,
and Hermas displays a tendency toward sectarianism. Photographs and
line drawings illustrate archeological evidence.
