Letter to the Romans (Ignatius of Antioch)
The Letter to the Romans by Ignatius, an early-second-century Bishop of Antioch, was written during his transport from Antioch, Syria, to his execution in Rome. One of seven extant epistles written by Ignatius, ''Romans'' is Ignatius’ most detailed explanation of his views on martyrdom.
==Context==
The exact year in which ''Romans'' was written is disputed; however, common consensus seems to be that Ignatius wrote concurrent with New Testament writings and likely under the rule of Roman Emperor Trajan. Scholars hypothesize that the text was written between “105 and 110 AD”,〔Clayton Jefford (ed.). ''Reading the Apostolic Fathers: An Introduction''p. 3〕 as well as “prior to 117 CE”,〔Wilhelm Pratscher (ed.) ''The Apostolic Fathers: An Introduction'' p.94〕 and “between the first year of Vespasian and the 10th year of Trajan” 〔Wilhelm Pratscher (ed.) ''The Apostolic Fathers: An Introduction'' p.94〕 Although we do not know which specific year Ignatius wrote this letter, he does provide the month and day: August 23.
Following his arrest in Syria, Ignatius traveled through many cities on his way to Rome for execution. ''Romans'' was written prior to his arrival in Rome, while he was in Smyrna. Our evidence for the Ignatius’ journey to Rome primarily comes from the fourth-century church historian Eusebius of Caesarea.〔Wilhelm Pratscher (ed.) ''The Apostolic Fathers: An Introduction'' p.91〕
''Romans'' is part of a series of seven epistles that Ignatius wrote, each addressed to a different regional church. However, while the other letters addressed communities with whom Ignatius had already had contact (either in person or via representatives), ''Romans'' addresses Roman Christians prior to his arrival in Rome. It has been suggested that the letter (especially because it includes the specific day and month it was written) was intended to allow Roman Christians to prepare for Ignatius’ arrival.
