The Fragments of Heracleon offers invaluable insights into the teachings of Heracleon, a prominent Gnostic theologian of the 2nd century, through the careful collation and analysis of his surviving writings. This volume, part of a larger collection, delves into Heracleon's interpretations of the Gospel of John, providing a window into the complex and diverse landscape of early Christian thought.
Featuring fragments preserved and critiqued by the renowned Church Father Origen, this work allows readers to engage directly with the ideas of a key figure in Gnosticism and to understand the challenges and debates that shaped early Christian doctrine. Students and scholars of religion, Gnosticism, and early Christian history will find this volume an essential resource for understanding the development of theological thought and the interactions between orthodox and heterodox traditions.
