By Professor ADOLF HARNACK.

Translated by LEONARD A. WHEATLEY.

With an Introductory Essay on the Organization of the Early Church and the Evolution of the Reader.

By the Rev. John Owen, Author of 'Evenings with the Skeptics.'

'Dr. Adolf Harnack is at the present time undoubtedly the leading liberal authority in Germany on matters connected with early Christian history.'—The Times.

'Those who are interested in early Church history know how to prize anything from the pen of Prof. Harnack. They will not be disappointed with the present paper, in which, with his accustomed learning and acute criticism, he annotates and comments upon the fragments of primitive church law which partly form the basis of the Apostolic Canons.'—British Weekly.

'The wide circulation of this volume would be of the happiest augury for a more scientific and worthy conception of the organization of the primitive Church.'—Dr. Marcus Dods in The Bookman.
