The Acts of the Disputation with the Heresiarch Manes is a book written by Archelaus, a Christian bishop and theologian from the 3rd century. The book is a detailed account of a theological debate between Archelaus and Manes, the founder of the Manichaean heresy. The debate took place in the city of Edessa in Mesopotamia, and was attended by a large number of people.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which deals with a specific topic of discussion between Archelaus and Manes. These topics include the nature of God, the origin of evil, the role of Jesus Christ, and the nature of the soul. Archelaus argues from a Christian perspective, while Manes defends his own heretical views.Throughout the book, Archelaus presents a clear and logical defense of Christian doctrine, and refutes the arguments of Manes. He also provides a detailed critique of the Manichaean heresy, showing how it contradicts the teachings of the Bible and the early Christian Church.Overall, The Acts of the Disputation with the Heresiarch Manes is an important historical document that sheds light on the early Christian Church and the challenges it faced from heretical movements. It is also a valuable resource for scholars and theologians interested in the history of Christian theology and the development of Christian doctrine.This letter he sealed and handed to Turbo, with instructions to deliver it to the person from whom he had already conveyed a similar document. The messenger, however, was extremely reluctant to return to his master, being mindful of what he had to endure on the journey, and begged that another person should be despatched in his stead, refusing to go back to Manes, or to have any intercourse whatever with him again. But Marcellus summoned one of his young men, (9) Callistus by name, and directed him to proceed to the place. Without any loss of time this young man set out promptly on his journey thither; and after the lapse of three days he came to Manes, whom he found in a certain fort, that of Arabion(10) to wit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
