Philosophumena; or, The refutation of all heresies, Volume II

Note 68 — BOOK VIII THE DOCETAE, MONOIMUS, AND OTHERS

Francis Legge translation

This short notice of Tatian is condensed from the almost equally short notice of Irenæus (I, xxviii.), who seems to connect Tatian with the sect of Encratites. Eusebius (Hist. Eccl., I, xvi.), while mentioning him as a pupil of Justin, does not speak of him as a heretic. Epiphanius (Haer., XLVI) follows Irenæus, and Theodoret (Haer. Fab., I, xx.), Hippolytus.
