a learned Russian priest, was born May 28,1762. He acquired a good knowledge of Hebrew, Latin, French, and German, then went to Hungary to study philosophy, history, and mathematics. He was married, but his great merits caused him to be appointed bishop, although, according to the general rules of the Greek Church, marriage is a bar to a candidate for this office. He died April 29, 1823. Irenaeus wrote Chronologie ecclesiastique (Moscow, 1797): Christiance, orthodoxe dogmatico-polemicae Theologic Compendium (Moscow, 1802, 2 vols. 8vo), and commentaries on Paul's Epistles to the Romans and to the Galatians (Kief, 1806, 2 vols. 8vo). See Gagarin, De la Theol. dans Eglise Russe (Par. 1857), p. 53. (J. N. P.)
