Canons of the Apostles and the Fathers, NPNF II.14
Chapter 1
Let a bishop be ordained by two or three bishops.
Notes
- The Latin caption is “The Ecclesiastical Rules of the Holy Apostles, set forth by Clement, Pontiff of the Roman Church.”
- The numbering which I have followed is Hammond’s, but, where it differs from that given by Hefele, I have placed Hefele’s numbering in parenthesis. With Hefele agree Van Espen and Bruns (in his alternative numbering) and Johnson’s marginal numbering. The numbering that Johnson himself follows is that of Cotelerius.
