Product Description

""Nestorius and His Place in the History of Christian Doctrine"" is a book written by Friedrich Loofs that explores the life and teachings of Nestorius, a fifth-century Christian bishop who was excommunicated from the church for his controversial views on the nature of Christ. Loofs delves into the historical context of Nestorius' time, examining the religious and cultural climate of the Eastern Roman Empire, where Nestorius served as a bishop. The book also analyzes the theological debates that led to Nestorius' condemnation, including his rejection of the term ""Theotokos"" (Mother of God) in reference to Mary and his insistence on the distinction between the divine and human natures of Christ. Loofs provides a comprehensive overview of Nestorius' teachings and their impact on Christian doctrine, as well as the various controversies and schisms that arose as a result of his ideas. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Christian history and theology, offering a nuanced and detailed examination of one of the most significant figures in the early church.1914. A small volume comprised of Loofs lectures on Nestorius and his position in the history of Christian Doctrine. After 1500 years stigmatized as a heretic, a book written by Nestorius was discovered in 1895, known as the Bazaar of Heracleides, written towards the end of his life, in which he explicitly denies the heresy for which he was condemned, instead, affirming of Christ the same one is twofold-an expression similar to the formulation of the Council of Chalcedon. This recent discovery is included in Loofs discussion of Nestorius.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
