Synopsis

THE SHEPHERD OF HERMAS: Hermas of Rome, Brother to Pius, Bishop of Rome, 2nd CenturyTranslated by the Rev. F. Crombie, M.A., 1885, Compiled and Edited by Marilynn Hughes - Written in the early centuries of Christianity, The Shepherd of Hermas stands among the most remarkable spiritual works of the early Church. At one time widely read by Christians and regarded by many as inspired, this powerful text was often placed alongside the writings of the New Testament and studied by believers seeking guidance in faith, repentance, and spiritual renewal.

Attributed to Hermas of Rome, the book unfolds through a series of visions, commandments, and parables delivered by a heavenly shepherd. Through symbolic imagery and prophetic instruction, it calls the faithful to repentance, purity of heart, and steadfast devotion in the face of a changing and often hostile world.

Rich in allegory and spiritual insight, The Shepherd of Hermas offers a rare window into the theology, hopes, and struggles of the earliest generations of Christians. Its themes of repentance, perseverance, and divine mercy echo the prophetic tone of Book of Revelation, making it one of the most significant and enduring works of early Christian literature.

This edition presents the complete text of this ancient Christian classic, inviting modern readers to rediscover a work that once shaped the spiritual imagination of the early Church.
