Theodor Von Mopsuestia Und Das Nicanum Studien Zu Den Katechetischen Homilien

Around 392 Theodore of Mopsuestia delivered his homilies to candidates for baptism. Using Theodore's homilies, this work studies the reception and influence of the Nicene Creed in the imperial church since Theodosius. Passed at Nicfa in 325 the Creed became an official dogma of the empire in 380/81. What was its role in the life of the church and in the theological controversies of the subsequent years? At which point did the people start to pay attention to its exact original wording? To which extent were Theodore's theological teachings influenced by the trinitarian dogma of Nicfa? The text of Theodore's Baptismal Creed is reconstructed in both its Syriac and Greek versions. It proves to be one of the most important sources of the Nicfno-Constantinopolitan Creed of 381.Gerber, Simon is the author of 'Theodor Von Mopsuestia Und Das Nicanum Studien Zu Den Katechetischen Homilien', published 2000 under ISBN 9789004115217 and ISBN 9004115218.
