Description
Against Heresies (Books I-III) Illustrated is a collection of writings by St. Irenaeus, bishop of Lyon, France, compiled in 180 AD. This work examines the various schools of Gnostic thought and heretical Christian sects of his time, contrasting them with the orthodoxy of Christianity.
Comprising the first three books, this edition provides a rare window into the doctrine of the early church and what scriptures were considered genuine during that period. The work is drawn from "The writings of Irenaeus" Edinburgh, Clark, 1911, and includes original footnotes along with illustrations of the people and events referred to in the text.
Published in 2020, this illustrated edition offers a unique insight into the early Christian church and its struggles with Gnosticism. With its historical significance and rare illustrations, Against Heresies (Books I-III) Illustrated is an important work for anyone interested in the history of Christianity and the development of doctrine.
