Wovon es handelt
Die dogmatischen Schriften Gregors von Nyssa in der englischen Reihe Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers: die Auseinandersetzung mit Eunomius und der Große Katechismus.
Kontext und Geschichte
Der Streit mit Eunomius dreht sich darum, ob das Wesen Gottes erkennbar sei, und Gregor verneint es: Die Namen, mit denen wir davon sprechen, sind die unseren und reichen nicht an das heran, was Gott ist. Dieses Argument begründet die spätere griechische negative Theologie. Wie in der ganzen Reihe ist der Band eine Zusammenstellung der Herausgeber des 19. Jahrhunderts und keine von Gregor gedachte Einheit: Die enthaltenen Werke entstanden weder gemeinsam noch für dasselbe Publikum.

He did wrong, when mentioning the Doctrines of Salvation, in adopting terms of his own choosing instead of the traditional terms Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He does wrong in making the being of the Father alone proper and supreme, implying by his omission of the Son and the Spirit that theirs is improperly spoken of, and is inferior. Examination of the meaning of 'subjection:' in that he says that the nature of the Holy Spirit is subject to that of the Father and the Son. It is shewn that the Holy Spirit is of an equal, not inferior, rank to the Father and the Son. Discussion as to the exact nature of the ‘energies’ which, this man declares, ‘follow’ the being of the Father and of the Son. that the language used by the great Basil on the subject of the generation of the Only-begotten has been grievously slandered by Eunomius, and so ends the book. Book V 330 The fifth book promises to speak of the words contained in the saying of the 330 Apostle Peter, but delays their exposition. He discourses first of the creation, to the effect that, while nothing therein is deserving of worship, yet men, led astray by their ill-informed and feeble intelligence, and marvelling at its beauty, Vil deified the several parts of the universe.…
