The Refutation of All Heresies
Contents.
The following are the contents of the fifth book of the Refutation of all Heresies: 1 --
What the assertions are of the Naasseni, who style themselves Gnostics, and that they advance those opinions which the Philosophers of the Greeks previously propounded, as well as those who have handed down mystical (rites), from (both of) whom the Naasseni taking occasion, have constructed their heresies.
And what are the tenets of the Peratae, and that their system is not framed by them out of the holy Scriptures, but from astrological art.
What is the doctrine of the Sethians, 2 and that, purloining 3 their theories from the wise men among the Greeks, they have patched together their own system out of shreds of opinion taken from Musaeus, and Linus, and Orpheus.
What are the tenets of Justinus, and that his system is framed by him, not out of the holy Scriptures, but from the detail of marvels furnished by Herodotus the historian.

The ms. employs the form Sithians, which is obviously not the correct one. ↩

This term klepsilogos is frequently applied by Hippolytus to the heretics. ↩

Widerlegung aller Häresien (BKV)
Inhalt [1-5]
S. 88 (1.) Der Inhalt des fünften Buches der Widerlegung aller Häresien ist folgender:
2. Die Lehre der Naassener, die sich selbst Gnostiker nennen; sie ist dieselbe wie die der griechischen Philosophen und der Lehrer der Geheimwissenschaften; diese legten die Naassener ihrer Häresie zugrunde.
3. Die Meinungen der Peraten, die ihre Ansicht nicht aus den heiligen Schriften, sondern aus der Sternkunde geschöpft haben.
4. Die Lehre der Sethianer, die aus den griechischen Weisen Musaios, Linos und Orpheus gestohlen und zusammengestückelt ist.
5. Die Meinungen des Justinus, der seine Lehre nicht aus den heiligen Schriften, sondern aus den Wunderberichten des Geschichtschreibers Herodot geschöpft hat.
