Charles Taylor

The Shepherd of Hermas V2 (1906) is a book written by Charles Taylor that is a translation of the early Christian text, The Shepherd of Hermas. The Shepherd of Hermas is a series of visions and parables that were written in the second century AD and were widely circulated in the early Christian community. The book is divided into three parts: the Visions, the Mandates, and the Similitudes. The Visions describe the narrator's encounters with an angelic figure who acts as his guide and teaches him about the nature of sin and the importance of repentance. The Mandates are a series of moral teachings that are given to the narrator by the angelic figure. The Similitudes are a series of parables that illustrate the teachings of the Mandates. The book is considered to be an important early Christian text and is often studied by scholars of early Christianity. This version, translated by Charles Taylor, was published in 1906.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
