43. Lucianists. A certain Lucian, not the one who now lived in the time of Constantine, but more ancient, taught all things in agreement with Marcion. In addition, he taught, of course, something else besides Marcion.

44. The Apellians. And this Apellis teaches, like Marcion and Lucian: they condemn all creation and Him who created. But he did not introduce three principles, like these, but one, and recognized one God, the highest and ineffable, and that this One created another. And this one, he says, who was brought into being, turned out to be evil, and in his wickedness created the world.

45. The Sevirians. A certain Severus, following Apellis, again rejects wine and grapes, fabulously saying that they came from the dragon-like Satan and the earth, which copulated with each other. And he denies the woman, saying that she has its origin in the evil power. He introduces some names of princes and secret books. Like other heretics, he rejects the resurrection of the flesh and the Old Testament.

46. Tatiana. Tatian was a contemporary of the most holy martyr and philosopher Justin. After the death of Saint Justin, he was corrupted by the dogmas of Marcion and taught in the same way as him, adding something other than Marcion. It was said that he came from Mesopotamia.

These are the thirteen heresies of the first part of the second book.

In this third section of the second book there are eighteen heresies as follows.

47. The Encratites: Being a fragment of the heresy of Tatian, they also reject marriage, claiming that it is the work of Satan. They forbid any eating of animate things.

48. Catafrigasts, they are also Montanists and Ascodrugites. They accept the Old and New Testaments; but they introduce other prophets: they boast of a certain Montanus and Priscilla.

49. The Pepusians, who are also the Quintillians, with whom the Artothyrites are in contact: these are two heresies. Some of them are katafrigasts, but teach a different thing in comparison. They deify some desolate city of Pepusa, between Galatia, Cappadocia, and Phrygia, and consider it Jerusalem. There is, however, another Pepusa. Women are given leadership and priesthood. When consecrating someone, they pierce a small child with copper needles, like the katafrigasts, and after kneading flour with his blood and making bread, they eat it as an offering. It is fabulous that there, in Pepusa, Christ revealed Himself to Quintilla or Priscilla in the form of a woman. They also use the Old and New Testaments, altering them according to their own understanding.

50. The Four Decimals. These celebrate the Passover on the same day of the year, and on whatever day the fourteenth day of the moon falls, i.e. on Saturday or Sunday, they celebrate that day, fasting, as well as performing vigil, they celebrate.

51. The Alogians: so called by us, they reject the Gospel of John and his Apocalypse, because they do not accept the Word of God who has come from the Father, who is eternally existing.

52. Adamians: after the name of a certain Adam, who is called alive. Their teaching is more worthy of ridicule than the true one. And it happens to them that naked, as from [the womb of] their mother, men and women come together in one place, and so they perform readings, prayers, and so on, as if they were monastics, and abstaining, and not accepting marriage; They consider their Church to be a paradise.

53. The Sampsians and the Elkesites: they still dwell in Arabia, which lies above the Dead Sea. They are deceived by a certain false prophet Elxai; of his family there were still women Marthus and Marthina, whom this heresy worships as goddesses. They are close to the Ebionites in everything.

54. Theodotians, followers of Theodotus, a Byzantine tanner. He stood high in Hellenic learning, but being arrested together with others in the days of persecution at that time, he alone fell away, while the rest accepted martyrdom for God. Therefore, since he was reproached for fleeing, he, because of the accusation that he had renounced God, came up with the idea of saying of Christ that He was a simple man.
