→‎Early Church Fathers: revised "mention Jesus is in detail" to "mention Jesus in detail"
Line 40: Line 40:  
By “our Savior” Quadratus means Jesus, and by “our times” he presumably refers to his early life, rather than when he wrote (117-124), which would be a reference contemporary with Papias.<ref>Richard Bauckham, ''Jesus and the Eyewitnesses'' (Cambridge: Eerdmans, 2006), pp. 53l.</ref>

Other early Christian texts mention Jesus is in detail.  The Didache, for example, is a collection of teachings based on the apostolic witness, which itself was based on Jesus’ doctrine.  Many of these texts, however, are too late (dating to the second half of the second century) to be used as proper historical sources, at least not without much caution, and they cannot establish the same claim to eyewitness authority as can the other writings mentioned above.
