Chapter 12: Praise for the Ephesians.
I KNOW BOTH WHO I AM AND TO WHOM I WRITE: I am the very insignificant Ignatius, who shares my fate with those exposed to danger and condemnation. But you have been the objects of mercy and are established in Christ. I am one delivered over [to death], but the least of all those who have been cut off for the sake of Christ, “from the blood of righteous Abel” to the blood of Ignatius. You are initiated into the mysteries of the Gospel with Paul, the holy, the martyred, as he was “a chosen vessel;” at whose feet may I be found, and at the feet of the rest of the saints, when I attain to Jesus Christ, who is always mindful of you in His prayers.
