This book contains some writings that were originally considered for our present day New Testament but that were rejected after careful consideration. The main author of this work is one of the first bishops of Rome and also possibly a follower of the apostle Peter. This book opens up with an epistle to the Corinthians then moves on to topics such as virginity and holy living. Works that were probably not written by Clement but that are attributed to him form the main body of writings that follow the apostle Peter after his final words in our present Bible.
