This title was first published in 2002. The theology of Irenaeus,
and the Demonstration of the Apostolic Preaching in particular, is
pivotal in showing the way in which the fathers of the church
interpreted scripture and distilled doctrine. The Demonstration is
an important hinge showing how the doctrine of the fourth century
with its definitive councils and definitions of faith, opens out
from the new testament apostolic and evangelical witness.
Presenting the full translation of the Demonstration of Irenaeus by
Dean Armitage Robinson, this book offers a detailed theological
commentary by Canon Iain MacKenzie on this foundational doctrinal
text. MacKenzie sets out the main theological themes throughout
Irenaeus' work, and explores his method of systematic theology,
Athanasius's dependence on Irenaeus, and Irenaeus' influence on
doctrine in the fourth century - particularly the works of
Athanasius, Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nazianzus and Gregory of
Nyssa. Highlighting the importance of this second century
theologian for theology today, this commentary and theological
interpretation offers an incentive to study Irenaeus in the wider
development of Christian doctrine as a cardinal figure in the
appreciation of systematic theology.
