توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب :
چوپان هرماس که در زمان خود بسیار محبوب بود، اثری قرن دوم است که اغلب برای آموزش کاتچومن ها استفاده می شود و در واقع به طور گسترده ای به عنوان کتاب مقدس در نظر گرفته می شود. در آن هرماس، برده آزاد شده ثروتمندی که ثروتش همیشه به طور قانونی به دست نیامده بود، چندین رؤیا (از جمله یکی از فرشتهای که به شکل چوپان مبدل شده بود) را میبیند و به او میگوید، توبه میکند، و در مورد تعالیم و رفتار مسیحی توصیه میکند.
کارولین اوزیک، جامع و دقیق، تنها تفسیر کامل «شپرد» به زبان انگلیسی است. مکاشفات هرماس اجمالی از تخیل مذهبی، دنیای اجتماعی و آرمان های اخلاقی در میان مسیحیان رومی اوایل قرن دوم به ما می دهد.

توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب به زبان اصلی :
Extremely popular in its time, The Shepherd of Hermas is a second-century work often used for instruction of catechumens, and in fact, is widely regarded as scripture. In it Hermas, a rich freed slave whose wealth was not always lawfully obtained, undergoes and relates several visions (including one from an angel disguised as a shepherd), repents, and offers advice on Christian teaching and behavior.
Comprehensive and careful, Carolyn Osiek's is the only full-length commentary on "The Shepherd" in English. Hermas's revelations afford us glimpses of religious imagination, social world, and moral ideals among early second-century Roman Christians.
