The importance of the "Didache" (or "Teaching") is that it is possibly a late first century text, thus one of the earliest Christian texts. It shows that baptism was originally by immersion in the early church, and done for adults who know the "Teaching." It shows that there were only two offices: (1) pastor/presbyter/"bishop" and (2) deacon; not the later Catholic corruption (1) bishop, (2) pastor/presbyter/priest, (3) deacon. It also shows that the Eucharist, or Thanksgiving, ceremony of the bread and wine was done weekly, along with a dinner/feast. The early church was indeed a hybrid of Jewish ritual and new Christian worship. The "Didache" also contains oblique and direct references to verses that will soon be canonized in the new New Testament. It is a testimony to the early use of Scripture in the Christian movement. A good piece of scholarship and an important one. I am sure that there are newer translations of the the "Didache," but this one offers brevity, clarity, context, and comparison at a good price. ( )
