This version of the work contains the last two books, which focus on refuting ancient heresies by referring to examples from the Old and New Testament. The early authorship of the document gives a rare window into the doctrine of the early church. This work is drawn from "The writings of Irenaeus" Edinburgh, Clark, 1911, by Irenaeus, Alexander Roberts (1826-1901) and W. H. Rambaut (1822-1893), and includes the original footnotes along with illustrations of the Biblical figures referred to in the text.
