Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the first of eight volumes of a comprehensive study of eighty heresies, written by Epiphanius, Bishop of Constantia, and addressed to Acacius and Paul, priests of the church at Eleutheropolis. The first volume contains twenty heresies and begins with a preface that explains the core theological ideas of the early church. Epiphanius divides history into four periodsâ"the time before the Law, the period of the Law, the time of Grace, and the period from the Ascension to the second coming of Christâ"and briefly outlines the development of the church from the time of the patriarchs to the time of the Apostles. The heresies treated in this volume are all categorized as either Jewish, Samaritan, or Gentile in origin and serve as a sort of early church history, with Epiphanius describing the theological beliefs and practices of the groups, as well as their founders and the geographic regions in which they spread. This volume is a valuable resource for scholars and students of early Christianity and for anyone interested in the development of Christian thought during the first four centuries of the Common Era.
