Church History

Philip who, as we learn from the words of Dionysius, [1272] was bishop of the parish of Gortyna, likewise wrote a most elaborate work against Marcion, [1273] as did also Irenæus [1274] and Modestus. [1275] The last named has exposed the error of the man more clearly than the rest to the view of all. There are a number of others also whose works are still presented by a great many of the brethren.
