from Part III - Traditions of Pro-Nicene Christology
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 February 2022
The date of this text written by Apollinarius of Laodicea (ca. 315–392) is difficult to determine with specificity.1 It should simply be placed in the late 360s or 370s. Here Apollinarius demonstrates the union between divinity and flesh in Christ. He employs the Greek term hypostasis to express the basic union between Christ’s flesh and divinity. Perhaps more radically than he does in On the Body’s Union with the Divinity in Christ,2 Apollinarius now applies “same-in-substance” (homoousios) to Christ’s flesh. This text, once attributed falsely to Julian of Rome, does not fully survive in Greek.
