1 Clement is a first-century letter from the Roman church to the Corinthian church, written after Corinth dismissed its elders. Known for its extensive use of Scripture, the letter reflects a deep familiarity with the New Testament, employs a collegial, respectful tone, and illustrates a presbyterian structure without a single ruling bishop. The text of the letter was lost to the Western church until rediscovered in the 17th century.

Today we're diving into the story of one of the most influential cities in early Christianity—Antioch. A bustling hub of culture, trade, and power, earning the title "Rome of the East." But it wasn't just a political giant—by the 1st century AD, Antioch became a crucial center for the spread of Christianity, the very place where believers were first called "Christians" and where Paul and Barnabas set out on their groundbreaking missionary journeys. Plus, we'll explore the Antiochene School's lasting legacy on biblical interpretation and theology. Title: Antioch - the Rome of the East Date: 4th century BC - 7th century AD Place: Antioch Key Figures and Events: Christological Debates, Nestorius, Theodore of Mopsuestia Documents of Significance: Letters of Ignatius, Canon 6 of Nicea.
