Eutyches - admin - 27-11-2007 03:58 PM
Dear all
I am working on a paper about Eutyches, his biography, Christology, and eventual condemnation.
I'd be grateful if people could post the questions that come to mind about him in the widest sense, so that I can try to make sure that my paper covers things as much as possible.
Thanks
Peter

Dear Peter,
As I understand it, St. Dioscoros supported Eutyches on the basis of his confession that 'Christ is consubstantial with His mother' - but added that Christ was not consubstantial with us. This has always puzzled me - why did Eutyches draw this distinction? What doctrine did he hold of the Theotokos?
In Christ,
John
