Who is the Rich Man That Shall Be Saved? (Quis Dives Salvetur)

Clement of Alexandria · c. 203 AD

Ante-Nicene Fathers (Roberts–Donaldson), Roberts, Donaldson, and Coxe (eds.), Ante-Nicene Fathers, Buffalo: Christian Literature Publishing, 1885–1887; digitized by CCEL.

Titus Flavius Clemens; head of the catechetical school of Alexandria after Pantaenus; teacher of Origen. His Protrepticus, Paedagogus, and Stromata together form a deliberate ascent from the call to conversion, through Christian formation, to the contemplation of divine things. Highly esteemed as a teacher in the Orthodox tradition (commemorated 4/5 December in some local synaxaria).
