A believer mentioned in ( Romans 16:14 ) According to tradition he was one of the seventy disciples, and afterward bishop of Dalmatia. The book has a high emphasis on morals and the work is an indication of Natsarim believers that still keeping the Torah of Moses. Textual criticism, the nature of the theology, and the author's apparent familiarity with the Book of Revelation and other Johannine texts are thought to set the date of composition in the 2nd century. However, several ancient witnesses support an early dating and there is internal evidence for the place and date of this work in the language and theology of the work. The reference to an unknown Clement is presumed by some to be Clement of Rome; if this is that Clement, it would suggest a date of 90 AD for at least the historical setting of the first two visions. Since Paul sent greetings to a Saber-Hermas, a Christian of Rome (Romans 16:14), a minority have followed the opinion that he was the author of this allegory.
