One of the earliest yet still enduring divisions within Christianity is the split between the Syriac Orthodox, or miaphysite, tradition and the traditions that affirm the Chalcedonian statement of faith. However, because the history of the Oriental Orthodox traditions has often been omitted from the history of the Western Christian traditions, many are unaware of a branch of Christianity with a distinct view of Christology that has persisted since the fifth-century. In the present volume, Mor Philoxenus Yuhanon Dolabani provides an explanation of the distinct Christology of the Syrian Orthodox Church and discusses the reasons for the division with the Chalcedonian tradition. The volume includes a preface by Julius Yeshu Çiçek, former Metropolitan of Central Europe, and an extensive introduction by the author.

    The Correspondence of Severus and Sergius

    Translation and Introduction by Iain Torrance
    ISBN: 978-1-59333-971-5
    Severus of Antioch was the Patriarch of Antioch and a moderate Miaphysite. Sergius the Grammarian is a lesser-known figure, but the content of his letters demonstrates that he was a more extreme Miaphysite. The early 6th century correspondence between the two consists of a set of three letters apiece and an apology by Sergius. Made available in Syriac along with Torrance’s translation, these letters are an important part of the working out of concerns associated with the Council of Chalecedon.
