Historical Context: Dating, Syrian Origin, and Structure of the *Didascalia Apostolorum* (3rd Century, Pre-Nicene)
The *Didascalia*, or *The Catholic Doctrine of the Twelve Apostles and Holy Disciples of Our Saviour*, is an ecclesiastical constitution from the 3rd century that addresses the duties of bishops, the ordination of deacons, the ministry of deaconesses, and numerous practical, liturgical, and pastoral topics. Originally written in Greek, it was later revised and manipulated, surviving in a Syrian version and a partial Latin translation.The Marian fragment demonstrates the veneration that existed in the 3rd century for the Mother of the Lord.
The Marian Fragment: Veneration of the Mother of the Lord in the 3rd Century Syrian *Didascalia Apostolorum*
*Women are not ministers of baptism*
> (*Didascalia* III, 9).> We do not approve that a woman should baptize or be baptized by a woman: this is illegitimate and poses serious danger to both the one baptizing and the one being baptized. Indeed, if it were permitted to be baptized by a woman, surely our Lord Jesus Christ, would have been baptized by his mother Mary: instead, he was baptized by John, like all the rest of the people.Source: *Sources Chrétiennes* – *Hors Collection: Sagesses Chrétiennes*, *Constitutions Apostoliques*For a deeper exploration of the Marian testimony of patristic documents, consult Pope John Paul II’s encyclical *Redemptoris Mater* on Mary in the tradition of the Church.Further Study:– Explore *Mariologia* (Mariology)
