Ignatius of Antioch: Which Epistles did the Early Church Fathers Know?

A viewer asked me recently, "How can you reject the 7L [7 letter-collection] middle recension when Lightfoot showed that Polycarp, Lucian and Irenaeus clearly cited that version?" In this video I want to answer that question and show why I believe the earliest Fathers knew the 'short recension' of the three letter-collection and not the seven in the middle form.
