Polycarpus was the Angel or Bishop of this Church, as Ecclesiastical History hath inform'd us. See Euseb. li. 4. cap. 14, 15. There is extant an Epistle of Ignatius to this Polycarpus, and another of his to the Church of Smyrna, of which Polycarp was Bishop. By which it appears of how great antiquity Episcopacy is, being as ancient as the Apostles themselves, whose immediate successors the Bishops most certainly were. Polycarpus non solùm ab Apostolis eruditus, NONLATINALPHABET. Euseb. loco citat. f. 127. |
