Book of Saint Basil On the Spirit
'Book of Saint Basil On the Spirit' Summary
In 'On the Spirit,' Basil of Caesarea defends the full divinity of the Holy Spirit against the Arian heresy. He argues that the Holy Spirit is consubstantial and co-eternal with the Father and the Son, and that the three persons of the Trinity are united in one essence. Basil draws on both Scripture and tradition to support his arguments, and 'On the Spirit' remains an important text in Eastern Orthodox theology.Book Details
