This paper introduces a categorification of k-algebras called 2-algebras, where k is a commutative ring. We define the 2-algebras as a 2-category with single object in which collections of all 1-morphisms and all 2-morphisms are k-algebras. It is shown that the category of 2-algebras is equivalent to the category of crossed modules in commutative k-algebras.
