Theodoret of Cyrus (c.393-c.466) was the most able Antiochene
theologian in the defence of Nestorius from the Council of Ephesus
in 431 to the Council of Chalcedon in 451. While the works of
Theodore of Mopsuestia and Nestorius are extant today only in
translations or in fragments, Theodoret's voluminous works are
largely available in their original Greek. This study of his
writings throws considerable light on the theology of those
councils and the final evolution and content of Antiochene
Christology. Clayton demonstrates that Antiochene Christology was
rooted in the concern to maintain the impassibility of God the Word
and is consequently a two-subject Christology. Its fundamental
philosophical assumptions about the natures of God and humanity
compelled the Antiochenes to assert that there are two subjects in
the Incarnation: the Word himself and a distinct human personality.
This Christology is not the hypostatic union of the Councils of
Ephesus and Chalcedon.
