Against Heresies
On the Detection and Overthrow of the So-Called Gnosis
Book • 1885
Written around 180 AD, 'Against Heresies' is a five-book treatise that identifies and refutes various schools of Gnosticism and other heretical Christian thought.
Irenaeus argues against the interpretations of scripture by Gnostics such as Valentinus and Marcion, and defends the orthodox Christian tradition.
The work is historically significant as one of the earliest unambiguous attestations of the canonical gospel texts and some of the Pauline epistles.
It remains a crucial source for understanding early Christian theology and the doctrines of Gnosticism.
