Publisher's Synopsis
""The Development of Trinitarian Doctrine in the Nicene and Athanasian Creeds: A Study in Theological Definition"" by William Samuel Bishop is a scholarly work that explores the evolution of the doctrine of the Trinity in early Christianity. The book examines the historical context that led to the formation of the Nicene and Athanasian Creeds, which are two of the most important statements of faith in the Christian tradition. Bishop delves into the theological debates and controversies that surrounded the development of these creeds, and analyzes the key concepts and terminology used to articulate the doctrine of the Trinity. He also explores the implications of the doctrine for Christian theology and spirituality, and considers its ongoing relevance for contemporary religious thought. This book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of theology, as well as for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
