Paedagogus, also known as The Instructor, is a significant early Christian text attributed to Clement of Alexandria. Written in Greek, this work serves as a guide to Christian living, offering instruction on ethics, behavior, and daily life according to Christian principles. Addressed to new converts, it outlines the ideal conduct expected of Christians in various aspects of society, from eating and drinking to dressing and socializing.

The text emphasizes moderation, simplicity, and the avoidance of excess, advocating for a life of virtue and piety. Clement's approach is characterized by a blend of philosophical reasoning and biblical teachings, aiming to educate believers in the proper way to live a Christian life. "Paedagogus" provides valuable insights into the moral and ethical values of early Christianity and remains a compelling read for those interested in the historical and philosophical foundations of Christian thought.
