- Summary:
- "Can a case still be made for Egyptian origin of the Canons of Hippolytus? This is the question that Maxwell E. Johnson and Nathan P. Chase focus on in response to the recent translation of and commentary on the Canons of Hippolytus by Alistair Stewart, who claims a Cappadocian origin, with a possibly later Egyptian redaction. In The Origins of the Canons of Hippolytus, the authors look at the relevant canons and argue for an Egyptian origin, supporting the claim that the Canons of Hippolytus remain the earliest derivative document of the Apostolic tradition"-- Provided by publisher.
