Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Work Claiming to Be the Constitutions of the Holy Apostles, Including the Canons: Whiston's Version, Revised From the Greek; With a Prize Essay, at the University of Bonn, Upon Their Origin and Contents IN reading these Constitutions and Canons of the Apostles, the Christian of the present day will be likely to exclaim, A splendid specimen of pious fraud! A strange mixture of good and of evil! He will readily perceive, however, that he has before him documents exceedingly important for illustrating the ecclesiastical history of a very remote period; a period during a portion of which, at least, heathenism was dominant; the sighing of Christian prisoners was heard; the blood of martyrs was flowing. Here, too, are seen indications of the bitter controversies which rent the church before and after the Nicene Council, assembled by Constantine the Great, ad. 325; here, some of the seminal principles from which gradually arose monasticism and the Papal hierarchy, and other great departures from the spirit and practice of the primitive Christians. And yet, with all the error, and superstition, and bitterness, and fraud, there is so much that is true, so much that is opposed.

The work can be dated from 375 to 380 AD. The provenance is usually regarded as Syria, probably Antioch.

Download or read book Constitutions of the Holy Apostles written by Alexander Roberts and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Apostolic Constitutions contains eight treatises on Early Christian discipline, worship, and doctrine, intended to serve as a manual of guidance for the clergy, and to some extent for the laity. It purports to be the work of the Twelve Apostles, whose instructions, whether given by them as individuals or as a body. The summarized structure of the Apostolic Constitutions: Books 1 to 6 are a free re-wording of the Didascalia Apostolorum Book 7 is partially based on the Didache. Chapters 33-45 of book 7 contain prayers similar to Jewish prayers used in synagogues. Book 8 is composed as follows: chapters 1-2 contain an extract of a lost treatise on the charismata chapters 3-46 are based on the Apostolic Tradition, greatly expanded, along with other material chapter 47 is known as the Canons of the Apostles and it had a wider circulation than the rest of the book. The best manuscript has Arian leanings, which are not found in other manuscripts because this material would have been censured as heretical. The Apostolic Constitutions is an important source for the history of the liturgy in the Antiochene rite. It contains an outline of an anaphora in book two, a full anaphora in book seven (which is an expansion of the one found in the Didache), and the complete Liturgy of the eighth book of the Apostolic Constitutions, which is the oldest known form that can be described as a complete divine liturgy.
