Combining historical and theological analysis, Christopher Beeley presents a detailed and far-reaching account of how key theologians and church councils understood the most central element of their faith, the identity and significance of Jesus Christ.Focusing particularly on the question of how Christ can be both human and divine and reassessing both officially orthodox and heretical figures, Beeley traces how an authoritative theological tradition was constructed. His book holds major implications for contemporary theology, church history, and ecumenical discussions, and it is bound to revolutionize the way in which patristic tradition is understood. 606 $aFathers of the church 606 $aTheology, Doctrinal$xHistory$yEarly church, ca. 30-600 606 $aChurch history$yPrimitive and early church, ca. 30-600 615 0$aFathers of the church. 615 0$aTheology, Doctrinal$xHistory 615 0$aChurch history 676 $a273/.1 700 $aBeeley$b Christopher A$01086770 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910968069003321 996 $aThe unity of Christ$94361099 997 $aUNINA
