Champion of martyrs, scourge of heretics, erudite theologian, shrewd politician–no account of early Christianity is complete without careful consideration of Irenaeus of Lyons. Here a team of international scholars examine aspects of the saint’s life, historical context, engagement with scripture, and his ecclesiastical and theological legacy for succeeding generations.
