Introductory Note to Irenæus Against Heresies

[3820] Matt. xxi. 13.

[3821] Isa. i. 23.

[3822] Jer. iv. 22.

[3823] Matt. x. 6.

[3824] John iv. 41.

[3825] Rom. xi. 26.

[3826] Gal. iii. 24.

[3827] Num. xxi. 8.

[3828] This passage is quoted by Augustine, in his treatise on original sin, written to oppose Pelagius (lib. i. c. ii.), about 400 A.D.

[3829] John xii. 32, John iii. 14.

Chapter III.—Answer to the cavils of the Gnostics. We are not to suppose that the true God can be changed, or come to an end because the heavens, which are His throne and the earth, His footstool, shall pass away.

[3830] 1 Cor. vii. 31.

[3831] Ps. 102:25-28. The cause of the difference in the numbering of the Psalms is that the Septuagint embraces in one psalm—the ninth—the two which form the ninth and tenth in the Hebrew text.

[3832] Isa. li. 6.

Chapter IV.—Answer to another objection, showing that the destruction of Jerusalem, which was the city of the great King, diminished nothing from the supreme majesty and power of God, for that this destruction was put in execution by the most wise counsel of the same God.

[3833] Matt. v. 35.

[3834] [Jer. vii. 4. One of the most powerful arguments in all Scripture is contained in the first twelve verses of this chapter, and it rebukes an inveterate superstition of the human heart. Comp. Rev. ii. 5, and the message to Rome, Rom. xi. 21.]

[3835] Isa. xxvii. 6.

[3836] Luke xvi. 16.

[3837] 2 Sam. v. 7, where David is described as taking the stronghold of Zion from the Jebusites.

[3838] The text fluctuates between “legis dationem” and “legis dationis.” We have followed the latter.

[3839] Isa. i. 8.

[3840] Mal. iv. 1.
