Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins of the Three Chapters controversy, which began in the mid-sixth century and had far-reaching implications for the Christian Church. The controversy centered around three documents: the writings of Theodore of Mopsuestia, the writings of Theodoret of Cyrrhus, and the letter of Ibas of Edessa. These documents were condemned by Emperor Justinian as heretical, as they were seen to support the teachings of Nestorius, who had been condemned as a heretic by the Council of Ephesus in 431. The condemnation of the Three Chapters was opposed by Pope Vigilius and many Western bishops, who argued that it undermined the authority of the Council of Chalcedon, which had rehabilitated Theodoret and Ibas. The book delves into the theological and political complexities of the controversy, shedding light on the interplay between imperial authority and ecclesiastical independence during this period. Through a meticulous examination of historical sources, the author offers a nuanced and insightful analysis of this pivotal moment in Church history, highlighting its significance for understanding the development of Christian doctrine and the relationship between Church and state.
