Ep. 2: The Letter of Barnabas
Fathers of the Faith
Written shortly before the end of the first century or else in the beginning of the 2nd, the Letter of Barnabas is now believed to be written by a different Barnabas than the one who joined Paul on his missionary journeys. This letter bears similarities to both the Didache as well as the Shepherd of Hermas, all three of which could likely have been written around the same time.
