About this book
A Source Book for Ancient Church History, subtitled From the Apostolic Age to the Close of the Conciliar Period, is by Joseph Cullen Ayer, Jr., who is named on the title page as a professor of ecclesiastical history. The title page is dated 1913.
The contents are arranged by periods, beginning with the Church under the heathen empire to A.D. 324 and the Apostolic Age to about A.D. 100. Listed sections include Christianity and Judaism, the extension of Christianity and the relation of the Roman state to Christianity. The text quotes source documents: a statement of belief about the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, a monastic rule about reading and work, and a passage from Epiphanius, introduced as bishop of Salamis, 367-403, on the doctrine of Paul of Samosata.
