Résumé

This book provides a comprehensive examination of Irenaeus of Lyon, a pivotal figure in the development of early Christian theology, and his profound influence on the formation of orthodox Christianity. Through a detailed analysis of his key writings, particularly Adversus Haereses (Against Heresies), the book explores Irenaeus's theological responses to the heresies of his time, especially Gnosticism, and his pivotal role in defending the unity of Christian doctrine.
Key concepts such as the goodness of creation, the role of the Church in preserving apostolic tradition, the nature of Christ, and the relationship between the Old and New Testaments are examined, showing how Irenaeus's contributions laid the foundation for many aspects of Christian orthodoxy. His teachings on salvation as the redemption of both the body and soul, the necessity of the sacraments, and the doctrine of recapitulation, in which Christ restores what was lost through Adam, are explored in depth.
The book also assesses Irenaeus's views on biblical interpretation, the formation of the Christian canon.
