Γοροθηνοί, οἱ ἄλλοις καιροῖς τὰς ἑορτὰς ἄγοντες παρὰ τοὺς Ἰεβουσαίους.
Ἰεβουσαῖοι διὰ τὴν αὐτὴν αἰτίαν τῶν ἑορτῶν πρὸς τοὺς Γοροθηνοὺς διαφερόμενοι.
Ἐσσηνοί, οἱ μηδ' ὁποτέροις ἐναντιούμενοι, τοῖς δὲ παρατυγχάνουσι συνεορτάζοντες ἀδιαφόρως.
Ναζωραῖοι, οἳ Χριστὸν ὁμολογοῦσιν Ἰησοῦν υἱὸν θεοῦ, πάντα δὲ κατὰ νόμον πολιτευόμενοι.
Αὕτη καὶ ἡ τοῦ δευτέρου τόμου τοῦ πρώτου βιβλίου τῶν δεκατριῶν αἱρέσεων ἀνακεφαλαίωσις.
Τάδε ἔνεστι καὶ ἐν τῷ τρίτῳ τοῦ πρώτου βιβλίου τόμῳ, ἐν ᾧ εἰσιν αἱρέσεις δεκατρεῖς.
Ἀγγελικοί. Οὗτοι παντελῶς ἐξέλιπον, αὐχοῦντες ἀγγελικὴν ἔχειν τάξιν ἢ διὰ τὸ ἀγγέλοις προσκεκλῆσθαι.
Αὗται τοῦ τετάρτου τόμου, δευτέρου δὲ βιβλίου αἱρέσεις ιηʹ.
Τάδε ἔνεστιν ἐν τῷ πέμπτῳ τόμῳ, δευτέρου δὲ βιβλίου, αἱρέσεις πέντε.
Αὗται τοῦ πέμπτου τόμου, δευτέρου δὲ βιβλίου, αἱρέσεις πέντε.
Τάδε ἔνεστιν ἐν τῷ πρώτῳ τόμῳ βιβλίου τρίτου, αἱρέσεις ἑπτά.
Αὗταί εἰσιν ὁμοίως τοῦ ἕκτου τόμου, τρίτου δὲ βιβλίου αἱρέσεις ἑπτά.
Τάδε ἔνεστι ἐν τῷ ἑβδόμῳ τόμῳ, τρίτου δὲ βιβλίῳ, αἱρέσεις τέσσαρες.
The one-hundred-and-third heresy is that of the Aposchistae, who are also called Doxarii. These seek after their own glory and submit neither to the law of God nor to His priests. They are thoroughly acquainted with the heresy of the Autoproscoptae. Like them, they require the observance of canonical ordinances and, although they are neither bishops nor presidents of the people, but only members of the common herd, they separate themselves from the Catholic Church. Rivaling the Euchites, that is to say, the Massalians, they tell the ascetics not to frequent church services, but to be satisfied with the prayers in their own monasteries. They differ among themselves and are in a state of utter confusion, because their falsehood is split into many factions. They have separated from the communion of the Church and pretend to a great severity of discipline, with each one vying to prove himself better than the next. Some of them do not admit holy baptism and do not receive Holy Communion, whereas others will kiss neither a newly made figure of the venerable cross nor a holy image. What is worst of all, since they consider themselves to be superior to all men they will accept absolutely no priest, but ‘speaking lies in hypocrisy and having their conscience seared they contend in words of no profit and lay up for themselves wood, hay, and stubble as most inflammable fuel for the eternal fire’. May we be delivered both from the frenzy of the Iconoclasts and from the madness of the Aposchistae, which, although they are diametrically opposed evils, are equal in their impiety.
