Hippolytus and the Roman Church in the Third Century: Communities in Tension Before the Emergence of a Monarch-Bishop

Abstract

An analysis of the hierarchical tensions witnessed by the Hippolytan literature in early third century Rome, in a period critical both for the development of Church Order and embryonic Trinitarian orthodoxy. Tertullian's relationship with Callistus is re-assessed.
