Testimonia

{"author":null,"backreferences":[{"context_html":"<p class=\"c006\">Had the somewhat sanguine hope thus expressed been\r\nrealized, it would have been unnecessary for us to present to\r\nthe English reader more than a translation of these three\r\nSyriac epistles. But the Ignatian controversy is not yet\r\nsettled. There are still those who hold that the balance of\r\nargument is in favour of the shorter Greek, as against these\r\nSyriac epistles. They regard the latter as an epitome of the\r\nformer, and think the harshness which, according to them,\r\n<span class=\"pageno\" id=\"Page_143\">143</span>exists in the sequence of thoughts and sentences, clearly\r\nshows that this is the case. We have therefore given all the\r\nforms of the Ignatian letters which have the least claim on\r\nour attention.<a id=\"r742\"></a><a class=\"c009 pginternal\" href=\"#f742\"><sup>[742]</sup></a> The reader may judge, by comparison for\r\nhimself, which of these is to be accepted as genuine, supposing\r\nhim disposed to admit the claims of any one of them.\r\nWe content ourselves with laying the materials for judgment\r\nbefore him, and with referring to the above-named works, in\r\nwhich he will find the whole subject discussed.</p>","headings":["The Writings of the Apostolic Fathers","THE EPISTLES OF IGNATIUS.
