The
Didache
or
Teaching of the Twelve Apostles
is recognized today by virtually all scholars as a Christian text of the first or early second century. Contemporary with the nascent New Testament, it is especially important to a reconstruction of that period because its highly utilitarian nature provides not only a supplement but a complement to the canonical texts. The recovery of information from the
Didache
is hindered, however, by the elliptical nature of the text; apparently a certain background knowledge on the part of the ancient reader was assumed, knowledge lost, unfortunately, to the modern audience. Even the important question of its genre remains unresolved. After examining the surface structure of the
Didache
using text-linguistic methodology, Nancy Pardee proposes a generic identity for the
Didache
, a reconstruction of its composition history, and some conclusions as to what these mean for our understanding of the early church.
