Катакомбами назывались подземные ходы и обширные помещения в Риме, Париже, Неаполе, Флоренции и в других городах, обустроенные первыми христианами во время гонений. Настенная живопись и надписи служат источниками ценных сведений о верованиях и обрядах христианских общин в первые века нашей эры. Стены и потолки этих древних сооружений украшались символическими образами на темы Ветхого и Нового Заветов. Первые христиане получали в катакомбах Святое Крещение, принимали Святую Евхаристию, слушали поучения своих пастырей, праздновали дни памяти мучеников. Здесь они духовно укреплялись при виде памятников веры и страданий своих предков. Речь в этой книге пойдет о самых известных из катакомб – Римских. Они были колыбелью Римской Церкви, о вере которой свидетельствовал святой апостол Павел. Издание подготовлено по труду известного в конце XIX века духовного писателя, магистра Санкт-Петербургской академии и переводчика святоотеческого наследия протоиерея Павла Матвеевского (1828—1900). Текст печатается по: Матвеевский П.А. Катакомбы. Санкт-Петербург, Типография духовного журнала «Странник», 1867.
