De què tracta
Els cinc llibres d'Ireneu contra els gnòstics: primer exposa les seves doctrines amb detall i després les refuta una per una.
Context i història
Escrit cap al 180. El grec original s'ha perdut gairebé tot i l'obra sobreviu sobretot en una traducció llatina antiga. I aquí hi ha el que la fa insubstituïble: fins al 1945 aquesta era la font principal del que sabíem del gnosticisme, perquè els textos gnòstics no s'havien conservat. Aquell any van aparèixer els còdexs de Nag Hammadi i es va poder comparar: Ireneu resumeix amb força fidelitat, però tot i així és un adversari qui parla, i convé recordar-ho a cada pàgina.

Chapter 9 There is but one Author, and one end to both covenants. Chapter 10 The Old Testament Scriptures, and those written by Moses in particular, do everywhere make mention of the Son of God, and foretell his Advent and Passion. From this fact it follows that they were inspired by one and the same God. Chapter 11 The old prophets and righteous men knew beforehand of the Advent of Christ, and earnestly desired to see and hear him, he revealing himself in the Scriptures by the Holy Ghost, and without any change in himself, enriching men day by day with benefits, but conferring them in greater abundance on later than on former generations. Chapter 12 It clearly appears that there was but one Author of both the Old and the New Law, from the fact that Christ condemned traditions and customs repugnant to the former, while he confirmed its most important precepts, and taught that he was himself the end of the Mosaic Law. Chapter 13 Christ did not abrogate the natural precepts of the Law, but rather fulfilled and extended them. He removed the yoke and bondage of the Old Law, so that mankind, being now set free, might serve God with that trustful piety which becomes sons. Chapter 14 If God demands obedience from man, if he formed man, called him and placed him under laws, it was merely for man's welfare; not that God stood in need of man, but that he graciously conferred upon man his favours in every possible manner.…
