In this video I argue that the testimony of Jerome opposes apostolic succession in its technical meaning. Along the way I respond to the argument by Keith Little that a key passage in Jerome has been misrepresented by Protestants. For Keith's argument see here: https://www.youtube.com/live/TmAIVTVR...
