Apostolic Father

Chapter 10 — Conclusion.

2Now I write these things to you from Smyrna by the Ephesians, who are deservedly most happy.

3There is also with me, along with many others, Crocus, one dearly beloved by me.

4As to those who have gone before me from Syria to Rome for the glory of God, I believe that you are acquainted with them; to whom, then, do ye make known that I am at hand.

5For they are all worthy, both of God and of you; and it is becoming that you should refresh them in all things.

6I have written these things unto you, on the day before the ninth of the Kalends of September (that is, on the twenty-third day of August).

7Fare ye well to the end, in the patience of Jesus Christ, Amen.
