His most famous work is the Diatessaron, a harmony of the four Gospels.

The book includes this work as well as Theophilus's Letter to Autolycus, in which he responds to questions about the Christian faith.The Clementine Recognitions is a third-century work that purports to be a record of the teachings of Peter, the apostle. The book includes a dialogue between Peter and Clement, in which Peter explains the Christian faith and defends it against heresies.Overall, The Writings Of Tatian And Theophilus: And The Clementine Recognitions provides a valuable insight into the early Christian Church and its intellectual and theological development.Translated By Benjamin Plummer Pratten, Marcus Dods, And Thomas Smith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
