The chapter constitutes a fundamental step in the proposed itinerary because it shows how Trinitarian revelation prompted a rethinking of divine attributes, recognizing a deeper sense of ontological unity precisely in a substance internally characterized by immanent processions, expressed at Nicaea with the derivative formulas in the Symbol.
