Synopsis

This book will captivate those interested in early church history. Of particular note is the Fourth Ecumenical Council, held in Chalcedon in 451 CE. This council, convened by Emperor Marcian with papal approval, was the largest and most significant gathering of Christian clerics in the ancient world, with over six hundred bishops in attendance. The author provides a detailed account of the council's proceedings, including primary source material and an analysis of the debates and eventual decrees on the nature of Christ. A fascinating exploration of a key moment in the development of Christian thought.
