"One of the first great events in Christian history was the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD, convened to organize Christian sects and beliefs into a unified doctrine. The great Christian clergymen who wrote before this famous event are referred to as the Ante-Nicenes and the Apostolic Fathers, and their writings are collected here in a ten-volume set. The Ante-Nicenes lived so close to the time of Christ that their interpretations of the New Testament are considered more authentic than modern voices. But they are also real and flawed men, who are more like their fellow Christians than they are like the Apostles, making their words echo in the ears of spiritual seekers. In Volume V of the 10-volume collected works of the Ante-Nicenes first published between 1885 and 1896, readers will find the writings of: Hippolytus, who during his time was considered an antipope because of his conflicts with the Church Cyprian, a bishop of Carthage, who greatly supported the establishment of the Church Caius, who supposedly wrote the Muratorian Canon, the oldest list of the books in the New Testament Novatian, an antipope who founded a sect of Christianity that endured a few hundred years after his death."

Hippolytus of Rome: not a lot is known definitively about Hippolytus. There are a lot of legends, a lot of possibilities, but even the early church historians of the Roman era did not have a lot of hard and fast information about him.
His major work is the Refutation of All Heresies, of which most has been preserved and translated in this edition. The work definitely is a Description of All Heresies: Hippolytus describes the various Greek philosophical schools in detail as well as explaining the origins of a lot of the heresies and heretics and detailed a lot of what the heretics believed. The work is much lighter on the "Refutation" part, although he did set forth a defense of the faith in contrast to the perspectives of the heretics.
This edition also includes fragments of commentary on Scripture attributed to Hippolytus, some other works of describing various beliefs, his material on the last days, and some texts which were believed to be pseudepigraphal regarding the antichrist and the apostles.
Of note in Hippolytus is a fairly robust premillennialism which is not dispensational but who will anticipate a lot of what would become dispensational premillennialism 1600 years later: the antichrist in the OT prophets and in Revelation, etc. The pseudepigraphal works, at least, maintain a robust understanding of and confidence in the resurrection and the new heavens and new earth.
