520 |a Extremely popular in its time, The Shepherd of Hermas is a second-century work often used for instruction of catechumens, and in fact 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 counsel on Christian teaching and behavior
