Another thing we notice when reading this work was that Christians were concerned with living a holy life and there was not much concern with theology.

This book Didascalia should not be confused with the DIDACHE, the latter being the oldest Christian literature, dating from the year 100 AD and the Didascalia from the year 300.

We see in Acts 6 that the office of deacon was created to care for widows. The social care
