Against Heresies

English translation: Ante-Nicene Fathers, vol. 1 (1885), translated by Alexander Roberts and W. H. Rambaut, public domain, from the Writings-Database collection (HistoricalChristianFaith). SermonIndex has only divided it into numbered sections; the wording is the translator’s. Irenaeus’ Greek is lost except for fragments, so no Greek column is shown. Licence: Public domain.
