The Ignatian Epistles Entirely Spurious is a book written by W. D. Killen that discusses the authenticity of the Ignatian Epistles. The Ignatian Epistles are a series of letters attributed to Saint Ignatius of Antioch, a prominent Christian figure from the first century AD. However, Killen argues that these letters are not actually written by Saint Ignatius, but rather by a later author or authors who were attempting to promote their own theological beliefs. Killen provides evidence and analysis to support his argument, drawing on historical and literary sources to shed light on the origins and context of the Ignatian Epistles. This book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of early Christian history and theology, as well as anyone interested in the question of authorship and authenticity in ancient texts.There are other indications in this letter that it cannot have been written at the date ascribed to it by the advocates of the Ignatian Epistles. It contains an admonition to pray for kings (or the kings), authorities, and princes. [18:1] We are not at liberty to assume that these three names are precisely synonymous. By kings, or the kings, we may apparently understand the imperial rulers; by authorities, consuls, proconsuls, praetors, and other magistrates; and by princes, those petty sovereigns and others of royal rank to be found here and there throughout the Roman dominions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
