Irenaeus of Lyons was an influential Church Father of the second century. He was one of the first to emphasize the episcopacy and the canonicity of the four Gospels, playing a large role in the formation of a New Testament canon. Irenaeus was a disciple of Polycarp, who in turn was a disciple of the Apostle John.
This volume contains Irenaeus’ The Demonstration of the Apostolic Preaching. It also includes translator J. Armitage Robinson’s introduction and notes.
