It is uncertain who the mother of Hermas is. Hermas, a former slave, is more commonly known as The Shepard of Hermas, or just The Shepard. As the Shepard is a character from the second, or perhaps the first century, it is doubtful if anything more will surface regarding his history.The written work The Shepard definitely dates from the second century. It had "weight" in early Christian writings, but was not included in the Bible. Given what we know from what documents exist, we may never know more of Hermas than we now know.
Hermas, in the context of early Christian literature, is often associated with the "Shepherd of Hermas," a Christian text from the 2nd century. In this work, Hermas is depicted as a vision-seer who receives revelations from a figure known as the Shepherd. He does not rule over a physical territory but rather serves as a spiritual guide, addressing moral and ethical issues within the Christian community. His teachings emphasize repentance, faith, and the importance of living a virtuous life.
