Ignatius of Antioch was an early Christian writer and Patriarch of Antioch. He wrote a series of letters while en route to Rome, where he ultimately met his martyrdom. These letters are considered a central part of a collection of works by the Apostolic Fathers. Ignatius is regarded as one of the most important figures among them, alongside Clement of Rome and Polycarp. His letters provide insights into early Christian theology, addressing topics such as ecclesiology, the sacraments, and the role of bishops.
