Review
'"Jefford's Didache in Context" is a necessity for college, university, and research libraries (an expensive necessity) and is invaluable for students of early Christianity and the NT. As this review suggests, a review can do no more than give a taste of its contents; only perusal can do them justice.'

'"It will be invaluable to all scholar who [...] wish to investigate aspects of this perplexing early Christian document.'
