Publisher's summary

Ignatius was a man discipled by the Apostle John, who was deeply rich in humility and wisdom. His letters live on, long after his death, and today we have the opportunity of hearing them! Friends, let us study the holy Scriptures, for this is the very thing greater than all earthly bread, but let us also not neglect the study of the very men that walked and lived in the days of the Apostles, for their wisdom and words are valuable to our development unto holiness and godly virtue. I pray that you are blessed as you listen this wonderful book.

Longer recensions, not the originals.

The versions of St. Ignatius' letters being read here are not the original versions (the shorter recensions), but rather the longer versions which were edited later and had significant parts added on. You can find the original, shorter recensions for free online in the public domain. I wish I had known this before using one of my Audible credits on this audiobook.
