PREFACE
THE present revision of the text of St. Basil's
Liber de Spiritu Sancto contains but few important
modifications of the text of the Benedictine edition
issued in 1726: but many readings of earlier editors,
which were unsupported by the six manuscripts then
in Paris, have been found in the manuscripts collated
for this edition ; and the general trustworthiness of
the text and the integrity of the book have been
placed on a firmer basis by the references to the
Syriac paraphrases.
In the Introduction an attempt has been made to
illustrate St. Basil's position by a short outline of the
circumstances which directly or indirectly affected
the terms used to express the Catholic doctrine of
the Holy Trinity. The student will find much help
in a small compass in the two following books, On
the Early History of the Doctrine of the Holy Spirit
(Swete, 1873) and The Arian Controversy (Gwatkin,
1889).

3 The term bfxoovatos is quoted by St. Athanasius from a letter of a
predecessor Dionysius, the date of which is A.D. 259-264. The earliest
Christian use of the word is given by Bull, Def. Fid. Nic. II. i. 9 :
' Operae fortasse pretium fuerit notasse, auctorem libri, qui not/xdvdprjs
inscribitur, Mercurio Trismegisto tributi, cap. 1, expresse dicere, Dei
x i i Introditction
.
Tpids, or (to use a verse of the Quieunque vult), * Deus Pater,
Deus Filius, Deus et SpiritUS Sanctus, Et tamen non ties Dii,
sed unus est Deus.' When, after the confused heresies of
the Gnostics, Arius definitely asserted that the Tpias was one
of different Essences, and denied the Godhead of the Son,
the Nicene Fathers asserted the doctrine, which they defined
by the term ' Homoousios.'
There was really no question among the Nicene Fathers
as to whether it was a Avds ] or the Tpids 2 which was opoovaios
;
but though, after Arius, Arianism was long silent on the sub-
ject of the Godhead of the Third Person in the Trinity, yet
all the while that the Arians denied that the Son was of one
substance with the Father, they were really in the same breath
denying also the consubstantiality of the Holy Spirit. After
a. d. 360, when questions were raised as to the doctrine of
the Holy Spirit, they, as well as all semi-Arians, whatever may
have been their varying admissions as to the dignity and even
Divine glory of the Son, declared the Holy Spirit to be in-
ferior to Him, and only a created and ministering Spirit. Such
semi-Arians as admitted the consubstantiality of the Son with
the Father were guilty of believing in the incongruity of a
Aoyov esse Patri 6p.oovo~iov. Certe planum fuisse scriptorem, hoc est,
non ipsum Trismegistum, sed Christianum aliquem ejus nomen emen-
tientem, solide probavit Petavius : sed et idem Petavius fatetur (De
Trin. i. 2, § 3, 4), circulatorem ilium perantiquum esse, et paulo post
apostolorum tempora extitisse. Quod et testimonia ex ipso a Justino
Martyre citata satis ostendunt.'1 To those who denied the Godhead of the Holy Spirit St. Athana-
sius puts the question, airoKpivdoOajoav, Tpids kanv tj Avds ; (Ep. i. ad
Serap. § 29) ; and elsewhere he says that the error of Apollinarius
substitutes a ttrpas for the Tpids (c. Apollin. i. 9).2 The earliest extant use of the term is supposed to be in Theophilus
(Bishop of Antioch, a.d. 169-182), Ad Autolychum ii. p. 106, where he
says that the first three days of creation are tvitoi Tpidbos, rov ©cot), koX
tov Aoyov clvtov, nal rrjs Sottas avrov : and the Latin Trinitas occurs in
Tertullian (a.d. 200) adv. Praxeam c. iii, ' Itaque duos et tres jactitant
a nobis praedicari, se vero unius Dei cultores praesumunt, quasi non et
Unitas irrationabiliter collecta haeresin faciat, et Trinitas rationaliter
expensa veritatem constituat.'

of Nicaea, in(TT(vop.(v ds era 0eoV, Uaripa UavraKparopa .... Kai

contained the doctrine of the Consubstantial Trinity, i. e.
Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti, una est Divinitas, aequalis
Gloria, coaeterna Maiestas. This, and nothing else, was the
necessary and true meaning of the words, though it may not
have been noticed by some, until controversy compelled them
to make a closer examination of their own profession 1. This
renders every step in the controversy from a.d. 325 till a.d.
381, and every explanation or evasion of the term Spoovo-ios,
as applied to the Son, to be a step either forwards to the
explicit acknowledgement of the doctrine of the Consub-
stantial Trinity, or backwards in the direction of the denial
of it. Hence the letters of St. Athanasius to Serapion, and
St. Basil's Book to Amphilochius on the Holy Spirit are really
treatises on the Consubstantial Trinity, and begin with the
Doctrine of the Son : and the latter work has in the Bodleian
MS. (o) a Second title, Ilepl rr)S dylas Tpiddos.

xiv Introduction.
The creed attributed to Gregory the Wonderworker, of
Neo-Caesarea, in Pontus, a j>upil of Origen, may be taken
as expressing in its latter part the true meaning of the simple
sentence which satisfied the Council of Nicaea, <di eh to &ytov
Uvev/jLd. It is as follows 1:
—
' There is one God, the Father of the living Word, Who is
His subsisting Wisdom, and Power, and Eternal Impress ; Heis Perfect Begetter of Perfect Son, Father of the Only
begotten Son. There is one Lord, One only of One only.
God of God, Impress and Image of the Godhead, energizing
Word ; Wisdom, comprehensive of the system of the universe,
and Power, the Maker of the whole Creation ; true Son of
true Father, Invisible of Invisible, and Incorruptible of Incor-
ruptible, and Immortal of Immortal, and Eternal of Eternal.
And there is One Holy Spirit having His being (vnap^.v) of
God, and manifested (that is to mankind) through the Son,
Image of the Son, Perfect (Image) of Perfect (Son) ; Life,
the Cause of those who live ; Holy Fountain, Holiness, the
Bestower of Sanctification, in Whom is manifested God the
Father, Who is over all and in all, and God the Son, Whois through all. There is a Trinity perfect in Glory and
Eternity and Kingdom, Indivisible and Unchangeable/
St. Basil, in the important formulary which he submitted
to test the orthodoxy of Eustathius of Sebaste (Ep. 125)
shortly before the following treatise was written, explains that
the doctrine of the Holy Spirit ' was left without elaboration
(egepyao-las)> because no question had as yet been set in
motion about it.' Yet ' the evil seeds of impiety ' had been
sown by Arius when in his Thalia (Ath. de Synod. 15)
he taught : Hyovv Tpids eo~Ti do£-ais ov% 6p.oiais' dveiripuKTOL eavrais

phrase being ayojxoioi ndpnav dWrjXcov tois re ouo-iaig kcu 86£ais

generally content with repeating some scriptural statements
as to the Holy Spirit and His operations, laying considerable
stress on references to the Father's will, and contradicting
Sabellian statements rather than the doctrine of the Church,
until the course of events in a.d. 360 produced a section of
them who were properly called Pneumatomachi.
It will be useful to give here the account given by
Epiphanius of the various sections of.Arians in the introduc-
tions to his books on heresies :

Epiphanius arranges the Arians of a. d. 360 into three
bodies (rdypaTa), one containing Eudoxius, Germanus (of
Sirmium), George of Alexandria, and Euzoius of Antioch :
another, Basil of Ancyra, Eleusius of Cyzicus, Eustathius of
Sebaste, George of Laodicea, Silvanus of Tarsus and Mace-
donius of Constantinople. In the third he places Acacius,
Meletius, and Eutychius of Eleutheropolis.
In the first Canon of the Council of Constantinople, a.d.
381, the Arian heresies anathematized are mentioned in the
following Order:— Kai 18ikS>s tt\v tcdv Evvopiavoov, cltovv *Avo-
poioov, Kai ttjv T(ov 'Apeiavcov, c'ltow ~Ev8o£i,avSiv , Kai ttjv to>v 'Hpia-
peidvoov, e'lTow TivevpaTopdxcov .... (1) The true supporters of
the propositions of Arius were the Eunomians or Anomoeans,
of whom Aetius was the leader (7rpoo-rar^s St. Basil de Sp. S.
§ 4), with a clever lieutenant in his secretary Eunomius.
(2) But the Arians, i.e. the supporters of Arius himself, were
at first rather a court party, called Eusebians, after the Bishop
of Nicomedia, where the Court was. Their opinions were
somewhat modified from the propositions of Arius by the
use of opoiova-iov. When Acacius (Bishop of Caesarea from
338 to 365) became their leader, they were known as
Acacians, or from his favourite formula, Homoeans. But in
381 they had the name Eudoxians from Eudoxius, who was
Bishop of Constantinople from 360 to 370. (3) The Semi-
arians are mentioned as identical with the Pneumatomachi
;
although in earlier days Epiphanius distinguished between
St. Cyril of Jerusalem. xvii
them as holding, the first, less orthodox, and the second,
more orthodox opinions on our Lord.
In the following year, the letter from the Bishops at Con-
stantinople to Rome speaks of these heretics as Eunomians,
Arians and Pneumatomachi, and omits the alternative titles.
II.
The Development of the Nicene Formulaand Beginning of the Macedonian Heresy.
St. Cyril of Jerusalem.—If we begin at Jerusalem,
which was then subject to Caesarea, we find the earliest
systematic exposition of the doctrine of the Holy Spirit in
the sixteenth and seventeenth catechetical lectures of Cyril.
In these, with the exception of references to the wild state-
ments of Gnostics, Cataphrygians and Manichees, we find
warnings only against those who (xvi. § 3) dare to separate
(sc. from the Father and the Son) the operation of the
Holy Spirit (01 xcopi£eii> ToXfxcjirres tov ayiov HvevfxciTOS rrjv ivep-
yeiav) ] and, he Says (§ 4), ovtc xa>pi'£o/iei/ ttju aylav TptdSa,
cop Tives, ovre crvvaXoicprjv, cos 2a/3eXXioy, epya^ofxeda. We might
infer from this, that Cyril wrote before Arian teaching on
the Holy Spirit had taken any more definite form than the
above-quoted dicta of Arius. It should be remembered
that, in earlier days, Eusebius of Caesarea, who exercised
Metropolitical authority over the Bishops of Jerusalem, was
the consistent friend of Arius, and admitted him to teach in
Palestine, while Macarius, the Bishop of Jerusalem, would
have nothing to do with him. Maximus, the successor of
Macarius, after some vacillation was on the side of the truth
at Sardica; and Cyril's lectures were delivered, under him,
sometime before Athanasius was welcomed at Jerusalem on
his return from his second exile a.d. 349. Cyril in his
lectures does not use a higher formula for the Son than Kara
ndvra opoiov (iv. 7), and did not repent of his shrinking from

the Nicenc bpoovmov until, after vicissitudes in which he
resembled St. Athanasius, without sharing his fearless con-
sistency, he attended among the 150 at Constantinople a.d.

ovo-ioi' 7rpo(TKeifxevoi), and in the following year was spoken of
in the letter to Rome as ' Bishop Most Reverend and Most
Beloved by God/ who was ' canonically appointed by his
suffragan bishops long ago and who had gone through very
many conflicts against the Arians in divers places ' (Soc. v. 8;
Theod. v. 9).
Rise of Macedonianism.—The troubles of the aged
Alexander, Bishop of Constantinople, culminated in Con-
stantine's order that he should receive Arius to communion.
His prayers, dnoXvaou epe r<W SovAoi/ crov . . . apov" Apeiov, were
answered, one with awful suddenness, the other by a wel-
come translation (Theod. i. 19) in a short time from the evil
to come (a.d. 336). He was succeeded by Paul, whose
occasional presence in Constantinople shed a few transitory
gleams of orthodoxy through an atmosphere that was satu-
rated with Arianism for forty years (a.d. 338-379). In 338
Eusebius the partisan of Arius (who must not be confounded
with the historian of Caesarea, also on the Arian side) was
translated from Nicomedia to Constantinople ; and on his
death in 342 Macedonius became a more permanent occu-
pant of the see. Macedonius was finally deposed by the
council held (a.d. 360) in his own city, after Ariminum and
Seleucia, which under the guidance of Acacius of Caesarea
and his friends, after accepting the Creed of Ariminum, also
deposed (on various pretexts) Basil of Ancyra, Eustathius
of Sebaste, Eleusius of Cyzicus and Silvanus of Tarsus.
Cyril of Jerusalem, who had been deposed by Acacius (by
virtue of his authority as Metropolitan) and had found a
home with Silvanus, was also condemned by this council,
and Aetius was degraded from the diaconate. Eudoxius
was put into the place of Macedonius, and, after his no-
toriously profane sermon at his enthroning, he put Eunomius
Rise of Macedonianism. xix
into the place of Eleusius, but soon drove him away to be-
come, with Aetius, the two leaders of extreme Anomoeanism.
The deposition of Macedonius was the occasion of the
rise of Macedonianism. He had been put into the see of
Constantinople on the supposition that, as he agreed with
the Arians on the doctrine of the Holy Spirit, he was alto-
gether a partisan (Theod. ii. 6). But Theodoret goes on to
point out that their agreement was shortlived. ' A little
while afterwards they drove him out also, because he did
not allow them to call Him a creature {kt'kj^o) to whomHoly Scripture gives the title of Son. And for this reason
it was, that having separated from them, he became the
champion of a heresy of his own: for while he too did not
say that the Son was " of one substance " with the Father,
but taught that He was " like in all things " to Him that
begat Him, he went on to apply the word " createdM
to the
Spirit/
The account of Socrates is very similar: (ii. 45) 'NowMacedonius, being ejected from Constantinople, and dis-
liking his condemnation, could not keep quiet anyhow ; but
he turns first to those who were on the opposite side, the
bishops who at Seleucia condemned Acacius's friends : and
then begins to send suggestions to Sophronius (a Paphla-
gonian bishop) and Eleusius, to hold out against the (Dedi-
cation) Creed which they had put out at Antioch and
confirmed at Seleucia, and he recommended that the faith
should be expressed in the counterfeit watchword o^olovo-iov.
And so there flowed together to him many of his acquaint-
ance, men who now have the name of Macedonians from
him; and many, who in the synod at Seleucia had disputed with
Acacius's party, openly declared for the Sfiotovaiov, though
formerly they were not clear about it. It was reported with
many, that the word was not an invention of Macedonius,
but of Marathonius, whom they had made bishop of Nico-
media a little while before ; for which reason men call them
also " Marathonians." Eustathius also, who was banished
ba

from Scbaste for the reason I mentioned above, found a
refuge with them. But when Macedonius refused to admit
the Holy Spirit into the Divine Trinity, Eustathius was
obliged to say, "I neither choose to call the Holy Spirit
God, nor would I bring myself to call Him creature." Andfor this reason those who hold the opoovaiou give them the
epithet of " Pneumatomachi."'
Egypt.—The earliest record now remaining of the articu-
late mutterings of the Pneumatomachi is found in Egyptian
Church History. St. Alhanasius was driven from his flock
for a third time in a.d. 356 ; and a second ' wolf was found
in George of Cappadocia, who had for a time worthy coad-
jutors in Aetius and Eunomius. While the saint was in
hiding with the monks of the desert, he received a letter
from the watchful Serapion, now Bishop of Thmuis, in
Augustamnica, telling him of some who had left the Arians
on account of their blaspheming the Son of God, but held
opinions against the Holy Spirit, declaring Him to be not
only a creature, but even one of the 'ministering spirits/
and higher than the angels only in position (pa6p£). Didy-
mus, the blind head of the Catechetical School, met this
heresy with his treatise on the Holy Spirit, of which we
have only Jerome's Latin version : and from the desert
St. Athanasius wrote his letters to Serapion ; the first of which
contains a systematic exposition of the doctrine of the Holy
Spirit. In it he says it is madness to assert that He can be
a creature, if co-ordinated in the Trinity (d yap Kria-pa rjv, ov
(tw€T(i(t(T£to tt) Tpid8i}
i. 17). His arguments, like those of
St. Basil, are based upon the belief in the Divinity of the Son.
In § 20 he alleges from Scripture, that the Son is sent by
the Father, the Spirit by the Son, the Father is glorified by
the Son, the Son by the Spirit, the Son speaks what Heheard from the Father, the Spirit receives from that which is
the Son's, and tells it to the world. The Spirit has there-
fore the same rd£is and (pvo-is in relation to the Son that the
Son has in relation to the Father (§ 21). The Son is

Wisdom and Truth, and the Spirit is the Spirit of Wisdom
and the Spirit of Truth ; the Son is the Power of God, and
the Lord of Glory ; and the Spirit is the Spirit of Power and
the Spirit of Glory : and he cautiously describes the inner
relation thus

The first part of the treatise ofDidymus is directed against
the assertion that the Holy Spirit is a creature : and he
maintains that the Spirit is of the same nature as the Father
and the Son, from the sameness of operations and of attri-
butes, and from the manner of His mission and of His re-
lation with the Father and the Son. Some of the objections
noticed by Didymus savour strongly of the presence of Aetius
and Eunomius in Egypt : e. g. If the Holy Spirit is not
created, He is either the Brother of God and the Uncle of
the Only Begotten ; or is the Son of the Christ and Grandson
of the Father \ In dealing with which, Didymus hints that it
may be possible to be guilty of unpardonable sin not only
against the Holy Spirit (Matt. xiii. 3; Heb. x. 29) but also
against the Son (Matt. x. 33 ; Heb. ibid.) and against the
Father (1 Sam. ii. 25). In a later writing Didymus speaks
of the Holy Spirit as proceeding from the Father dvapxoos,
6ixoovcrlo>s, ddiaipcTcos, dppf)Ta>s : and this relation with the
Father, as well as the relation with the Son, is as to His
Divine Nature (eWopeuerai napa tov Uarpos kol p.evei Trapa ra
Yta) OeiKws De Trin. ii. 21).
After the death of the second Cappadocian intruder at the
hands of a pagan mob, St. Athanasius was gladly received
by his people, and held the famous council 2at Alexandria
(a.d. 362), with the zealous co-operation of Eusebius of Ver-
ceilae (Liguria), who was just then returning from exile in

on his homeward journey to the Churches of Illyricum, Italy
and Gaul. When the little ' cloud ' of Julians reign had
passed away, St. Athanasius with the Egyptian and Libyan
Bishops (a. d. 363) sent, in reply to a request from the new
Emperor Jovian, a letter which is a valuable contemporary
record of the condition of the Church (Theod. Eccl. H. iv. 3).
It repeats the Faith of the Nicene Fathers, and states that
it is received by ' all the Churches in every place (koto, tokov),
to wit, the Churches in Spain, Britain and the Gauls, all
Italy and Campania, Dalmatia, Dacia and Mysia (Moesia),
Macedonia and all Hellas, and all the Churches in Africa,

of a few men who held the opinions of Arius/ (His omission
of Thracia, of all but two of the provinces of Asia, and his
exception with respect to the churches under Antioch are
significant.) All these are claimed as loyal to the opoovawv,
and it was still too early in the days of Macedonianism to
speak of them as having judged and condemned it : but the
letter ends with a reference to the doctrine of the Holy Spirit
as implied by the Nicene Fathers under the simple words,

III.
The Orthodoxy of the Churches.
Spain.—In Spain we know that Hosius of Corduba was a
consistent upholder of the truth from the Council of Elvira
(a.d. 305) to that of Sardica (a.d. 344) and until his banish-
ment to Sirmium in 355 ; and that Potamius, Bishop of
Lisbon, was the chief framer of the Sirmian ' Blasphemy»,'
a.d. 357? which rejected ovala, Sfioovatov, and 6iioiovo-lop alike.
Yet we can accept the statement of St. Athanasius that the
Churches of Spain generally followed Hosius rather than
Potamius, and received the Nicene Faith with all that it
implied.
Britain and Gaul.—In Gaul, Maximin Bishop of Treves
was the host of St. Athanasius in his first exile (a.d. 336),
and when, during his third exile, eighteen years afterwards, the
Emperor Constantius endeavoured to force a synod at Aries
to condemn him, Vincent of Capua yielded, but Paulinus,
Maximin's successor, stood firm, and was banished to
Phrygia. To the same country Hilary of Poitiers and
Rhodanius of Toulouse were sent in 356, after condemna-
tion by a Council under Saturninus, the Arian Bishop of
Aries : and Hilary's own statement is, that on his way into
exile he first heard the Creed of Nicaea, i. e. that no copy of
it had found its way across Gaul from Treves to Poitiers : he
says the orthodoxy of Britain and Gaul did not need it. Hereturned from exile after addressing a remonstrance to Con-
stantius to Constantinople in 360. During his exile he had
written his twelve books * de Trinitate,' and had worked
hard to bring about an understanding between semi-Arians

and the Church. Socrates says, 'lXapios 8e ku\ iXXdyipos t»v

boyjiaTGsv Ka8^aTo. In his treatise on the Trinity, he deals
with the doctrine of the Holy Spirit warily, for it was written
in early days (a. d. 359) before Macedonianism had taken a
definite shape and called out warnings from the Church.
But some of his words should be remembered in reference to
St. Basil's treatise. He speaks of the Spirit as ' ex Patre per
Filium ' (xii. 53, 57) : and in this connection he uses the texts
' Of Whom are all things ' and ' through Whom are all
things/ He also says that the Spirit receives ' ex Utroque.'
Again, Phoebadius ofAgen (who was afterwards distinguished
as a leader of the small body who held out at Ariminum for
the Homoousion), in writing against the Arians (a. d. 358),
said that the Church holds ' the Spirit to be of God (de Deo),
distinct (alius) from the Son as the Son is from the Father.'
It should be remembered that in 360, after Ariminum and
Seleucia, when Hilary returned from exile, a council of Gallic
Bishops, at Paris, declared that they accepted the Homo-ousion in its true sense, and excommunicated the Arian
Saturninus.
Italy.—When St. Athanasius mentions ' all Italy and
Campania,' he passes over in silent contempt the Arian
Bishop of Milan, Auxentius (of Cappadocia), who had been
intruded into the see of Dionysius, banished by Constantius
after his bold support of the saint at the Council of Milan
a- d. 355 : and he shews no fear of the contamination of the
country by the Council of Ariminum lately held (359).
Liberius was still standing out against its Creed, having re-
gained what St. Athanasius calls his former mind (rrjv e£ apxy*
yvcofxrjv). At the time of his writing Eusebius of Vercellae
and Hilary of Poitiers had returned from their exile and were
doing their utmost to undo what had been done at Ariminum
during their absence ; they were just then helping the ortho-
dox in Northern Italy against Auxentius, having with them
Italy. xxv
the definitions of the Council of Alexandria. It was with
special reference to Auxentius that Hilary used the famous
phrase, ' Sanctiores aures plebis quam corda sacerdotum.'
In 374 Auxentius died, and Ambrose was made bishop. His
treatise de Spiritu Sancto was written, at the request of the
Emperor Gratian, in 381 : and in it he borrowed largely
from the treatises of Didymus and Athanasius, of Basil and
his brother Gregory (of Nyssa), who had preceded him in the
work of controversy.
The Macedonians, by means of Eustathius of Sebaste,
Silvanus of Tarsus, and Theophilus, another Cilician bishop l
,
imposed on Liberius after the Council of Lampsacus, at the
very end of his life : but in the days of his successor Damasus
a synod assembled to judge the Arian Auxentius ; ninety
bishops from Gaul and Italy attended, and condemned him
:
and the synodical letter, as sent to the churches in Illyricum,
shews in one passage both the orthodoxy of that part of Italy,
and the true interpretation of the last words of the Nicene
Creed : Ka\ yap fjvUa TTpeorov rj KaKia tcov alperiKoov dxpafciv fjp£aTo,

turn tuum et creabuntur : deinde alius item posuit : Spiritus
Divinus qui fecit me ; Non enim separandus est diviniiate.
qui in operatione ac peccatorum remissione connectitur.'
Seven years afterwards (a. d. 379) this was accepted in synod
at Antioch by Meletius, Eusebius of Samosata, Eulogius of
Edessa, and 150 other bishops. (Mansi, iii. 459-464.)
The mention of Campania may be due to St. Athanasius's
knowledge that Vincent of Capua, who had been frightened
into condemning him at Aries in 354, had remained firm
against the Creed of Ariminum in 359.
Illyricum-Occidentale.—St. Athanasius mentions next
Dalmatia, a part only of the diocese of Illyricum. Sirmium
was tainted with the memories of its heretical bishops Pho-
tinus and Germinius (joint author, with Potamius, of the
Blasphemy, a. d. 357), and of their two still more heretical
suffragans, Ursacius of Singidunum and Valens of Mursa.
But in a council of Illyrican bishops which was held about
the time of Germinius' death, a.d. 371 (just after the council
under Damasus, and a similar council in Gaul), the ortho-
doxy of the diocese was vindicated by a letter of reproof
to the Bishops of Asia which must have comforted the heart
of St. Basil in his struggles. In it they said they had demon-
strated the Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit to be con-
substantial (ofioovaiou) : and they were sending on the Romanbishop Elpidius to see if it were really true that in Asia
a doctrine is preached which separates the Holy Spirit from
the Father and the Son :' If ye really have ever been involved
in such an error, put off the old man and put on the new.
And Elpidius will teach you to preach the true faith, that the
Holy Consubstantial Trinity is sanctified, glorified and mani-
fested in God the Father with the Son and Holy Spirit, the
Father in the Son, the Son in the Father with the Holy Spirit
for ever.' It may be noticed that the Illyrican bishops go on
to say that this doctrine of the Consubstantial Trinity is ' in
conformity with the faith long ago set forth in Nicaea.'
(Theod. iv. 9.)
JJacia and Macedonia. xxvii
Dacia.—The later orthodoxy of Dacia and Moesia maybe said to result naturally from the great Council at Sardica
(a.d. 344), whose Acts were a sort of second chapter of the
Nicene council. It restored St. Athanasius (after his second
exile) to Alexandria, Marcellus to Ancyra, and Asclepas to
Gaza, deposed and excommunicated the three ' wolves who
had entered ' their sees, Gregory, Basil, and Quintianus, and
condemned the eight leaders of the Arians, with their policy
and teaching.
Macedonia.—The name of Ascholius, who succeeded to
the metropolitan throne of Thessalonica, at the time of the
deposition of Macedonius (a. d. 360), is some guarantee for
the truth of St. Athanasius's claim that Macedonia * held the
Nicene Creed. He was the firm friend of St. Athanasius and
St. Basil, and his statement to the Emperor Theodosius,
who applied to him for baptism, when he was ill at Thessa-
lonica, confirms and carries on the testimony of St. Athanasius
almost to the time of the Council of 381 : to Se ficmTLo-Qrjvai

from Macedonianism is further suggested by the fact of the
edict of Theodosius put forth at that time from Thessalo-
nica (Cod. Theod. xvi. 1, 2), in which 'he declared his belief
in the Godhead of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost,
in equal Majesty and divine Trinity, and commanded that
the name of Catholic Christians should be applied only to
those who professed the same belief, while he expressed his

desire that all his subjects should follow that faith as taught
by Damasus, Bishop of Rome, and by Peter, Jiishop of Alex-
andria.' (Wordsworth, Ch. Hist. ii. 313.)
Thracia.—The condition of Constantinople has been
already noticed. The pseudo-council of the Kusebians at
Philippopolis (a. d. 344) ; the successive exiles of the ortho-
dox bishops, Eutropius and Lucius, from Hadrianople ; the
murder of Theodulus, Bishop of Trajanople, and the vicissi-
tudes of Paul and Evagrius, both occasionally allowed to be
bishops of Constantinople ; with all that was done at Nike to
wreck the Council of Ariminum, shew sufficiently the reason
of the omission of Thracia from St. Athanasius's list of the
Churches that held the Nicene Faith ; while, in after days, the
mission of St. Gregory of Nazianzus to preach the Catholic
Faith in Constantinople, and his sermons in the church of
' the Resurrection ' speak emphatically to the result of the
forty years of Arianism which ended with the expulsion of
Dernophilus.
Africa and the Mediterranean.—The memories of Ter-
tullian and Cyprian, the labours of Lucifer of Cagliari, and the
extant writings of Epiphanius, Metropolitan of Cyprus, must
suffice to support the claim of St. Athanasius for the ortho-
doxy of the Churches of Africa and the islands of the
Mediterranean. The connexion between the ' Niceno-Con-
stantinopolitan ' Creed and the formulas contained in the
'AyKvpeoros of Epiphanius is well known : the latter work was
written as a help to orthodoxy for the Church of Pamphylia,
a province of Asia. A passage from it may be quoted as ex-
pressing the doctrine of the Consubstantial Trinity in a
manner somewhat different from the other writers, quoted in
the present book : ti'mttis de rj Ka66Xov KrjpvKoov (pcouals avn]

tise).
Asia.—There were ten provinces in Asia, of which Hilary
says (De Syn. 63) that, with the exception of a few, including
Eleusius, Bishop of Cyzicus, they were for the most part
really ignorant of God—that is, overrun by pure Arianism.
The provinces were Asia, Caria, Lycia, Pamphylia, Lycaonia,
Pisidia, the two Phrygias, Lydia, and Hellespontus. Of
these St. Athanasius claims as orthodox only two, Pam-
phylia and Lycia, and in after years we find the former
mentioned honourably by Epiphanius, the latter by St. Basil.
Menophantus, bishop of Ephesus, who belonged to the Arian
party even at Nicaea, was deposed and excommunicated
among the eight Arian leaders at Sardica, and thirteen years
afterwards he joined with the rest of his party at Antioch in
intruding the Cappadocian George into St. Athanasius's place.
The condition of the diocese is an argument for the earliest
date assigned to the orthodox Council held at the Phrygian
Laodicea. In 356 Macedonius put into the see of Cyzicus
Eleusius, noted for his share in his patron's violence and after-
wards for his maintenance of the Dedication Creed at Seleucia
in 359. Deposed at Constantinople in 360, he made way for
Eunomius : but he returned on Julian's accession, though soon
again banished by Julian, and again restored. At Lampsacus,
in his province, a council was held in 365 which re-affirmed
his favourite Creed of the Dedication. Although the Arian
Emperor Valens rendered its decisions futile, the writer
Socrates says the outcome of the Council was the prevalence
of Macedonianism along the Hellespont (Soc. iv. 4). Hetells also of the firmness of the Church of Cyzicus, which
remained faithful to the former teaching of Eleusius on his
return from Valens, before whom at Nicomedia he had been
compelled to give his assent to an Arian Creed. His flock

condoned the failing of their shepherd on his penitent confes-
sion of his weakness. Later on (a. d. 370) we hear of the
Bishops of Heraclea and Constantinople being foiled in anewattempt to give the people of Cyzicus an Arian bishop : yei
when the tyranny of Valens was overpast, and the harshness
of Arians no longer pressed him, Eleusius became more
obstinately Macedonian, and was the leader of the thirty-six
bishops (chiefly of his own province) who represented the
semi-Arian party in the Council of Constantinople (Soc. v. 8).
He was finally left to the sorry comfort, invented by himself
and the others who shared his belief in a divided Trinity, that
they belonged to the chosen few, and that the Church con-
sisted only of the many called (Soc. v. 10). After his removal
from Cyzicus, the Arian Eunomius lived for many years at
Chalcedon in the neighbouring Pontic province, and Sozomen
(vi. 27) says that his heresy was spread from Cilicia and the
mountains of Taurus as far as the Hellespont and Constan-
tinople. He ascribes to Eunomius (as he also does to Apol-
linarius) the power of attracting to his party the persons
among whom he dwelt. St. Basil, writing to St. Amphi-
lochius (Metropolitan of Lycaonia) in a. d. 375, mentions
five bishops of Lycia, and three priests in another diocese of
the same province, who dissented from what he calls to 'Ao-ia-
vov (pp6vr]fxa, and said he was most thankful to God that there
were any at all in the region of Asia who were unhurt by
heresy : in another letter to the Neocaesarean Church, he
claims Pisidia, and the two Phrygias as well as the pro-
vince of Amphilochius ; and later on, when St. Basil was,
as often before, lying on a sick bed, he was cheered by the
news of a council, held somewhere in the exarchy of Asia,
which accepted the writings of himself and of Amphilochius
on the true meaning of the Nicene formula, and condemned
the errors of the Pneumatomachi.
Oriens.—The Churches of the East (i. e. under Antioch),
are claimed as orthodox with the exception of a few persons
who held the opinions of Alius (at Kara avarokas eKKkrjaiai, irapt£
Antioch. xxxi
oXlyoiv T(hv to. 'Apelov (fipovovvrcov). To one of less buoyant
mind than St. Athanasius, the troubles in Antioch itself would
have been too perplexing for such a claim : his friend Lucifer
of Cagliari had lately aggravated the schism by consecrating
Paulinus : Euzoius, the oft-deposed heretic, who had baptized
Constantius (Nov. 361), ruled in the Church, and was only
kept from turning Paulinus out of the small church in which
the orthodox Eustathians worshipped from a personal feeling
of respect (m'Soi rfj npos avrov). The orthodox Meletians were
holding aloof from these : and Euzoius had promulgated
(a. d. 361) the ultra-Arian Creed which declared our Lord
to be navTeXas dv6p.ot.ov tm JJarpl. Yet St. Athanasius felt (as
he said in De Syn. 32), that at the end of their combinations
against the truth ' they would come to themselves and say,
we will arise and go to our fathers, and will say to them,
We anathematize the Arian heresy, and we acknowledge the
Council of Nicaea.' When he wrote, he knew that Antioch
was rid of the presence of Aetius and Eunomius, but he did
not live to see the realization of his hopes. After his death,
the confusion was somewhat simplified for a time when Valens
banished Meletius to Armenia (a. d. 374), sparing Paulinus
(81 vTvepfidWovaav tov dvdpos evkdficiav). The accession of
Gratian, the death of Euzoius, and, two years afterwards
(a. d. 378) the death of Valens brought comparative peace
to the Church of Antioch, as it did also to the others. Me-
letius returned, although Paulinus was still living.
Eusebius of Samosata was not banished from his see till
after St. Athanasius's death. He too returned in 378 from
his exile in Thrace, and laboured energetically for the con-
firmation of the Nicene faith. Six bishops, famous for zeal
and orthodoxy, are mentioned by Theodoret (v. 4) as having
been placed in their sees by Eusebius : one, Isodore, was
a predecessor of Theodoret himself in Cyrus : two, Theo-
dotus and Maris, were given to Hierapolis and Doliche in
Eusebius's province : two, Acacius and another Eusebius,

Berroea and Chalcis, sees in his province of Antioch ; and
the last, Eulogius, being made Metropolitan of Edessa, gave
Protogenes, the companion of his struggles, to be ' the guar-
dian and physician of the sick city ' of Karrae.
In 379 a council under Meletius accepted the synodal
letter from Rome (see p. xxv) : the signatures of Eusebius
and Eulogius, attached to the acceptance, tell us of ' the
peace of the Churches' (Theod. iv. 18). In such ways as
these, which led up to the presidence of Meletius at Con-
stantinople in 381 and his honoured death there, the hopes
of St. Athanasius were realized : and St. Augustine records
that in his time, while there were no Arians in Africa, their
numbers in the East were very few.
Pontus—Sozomen (vi. 26) says that the greater part of
the Catholic Church would have been subverted by Ananismhad it not found opponents in the Cappadocians, Basil and
Gregory. It was well that Cappadocia should have furnished
such champions as Basil and the two Gregories ; for its
name is attached to many against whom the orthodox were
called to fight. Asterius, of whose Arian sophistries St.
Athanasius gives us specimens (De Synod. § 18, 19), was
a Cappadocian : Eunomius was a Cappadocian : Gregory
and George, the two Arian intruders into the see of St. Atha-
nasius, and Auxentius of Milan, were Cappadocians also.
Eudoxius came from the adjoining province of Armenia. In
Bithynia, Eusebius of Nicomedia and Theognis of Nicaea
itself were almost the last to sign the Creed in 325; and it
was from the Emperor's court in Nicomedia that the Arian
reaction derived its chief strength. At the time of St. Basil's
episcopate, their successors were, in Nicomedia, Marathonius,
a nominee of Macedonius and a leader of his party ; and
in Nicaea, Hypatius, a pupil of Aetius, and nominee of
Eudoxius. In Galatia, the annals of Marcellus and Basil
of Ancyra, and in Armenia, the career of Eustathius of
Sebaste, are mere registers of shifting winds of heresy. In
377 St. Basil said (Ep. 263) that the latter was TrpwToo-Td-nis
Pontus. xxxiii
rrjs t<ov 7rv€VjjiaToiidx<ov alpeaevs. There were rugged tracts,
both in Pontus and Asia, which were convenient places of
exile for orthodox bishops. Paul, three times Bishop of
Constantinople, is said to have ended his third banishment
by being strangled at Cucusus, not far from Caesarea, in
339, when St. Basil was still a boy. Dionysius of Milan
was sent by Constantius to Cappadocia in 355; Paulinus of
Treves, the constant friend and correspondent of St. Atha-
nasius, Hilary of Poitiers and Rhodanius of Toulouse were
sent to Phrygia soon after : and Meletius of Antioch came
in exile to Armenia in 370. Arians also had the same rough
experiences : Aetius and Eunomius followed the footsteps of
Hilary to the barbarous land in which Paulinus died.
The orthodox traditions of Firmilian (a predecessor of St.
Basil, who presided in the Synod held at Antioch to try
Paul of Samosata) were handed on by Leontius, who was
at Nicaea, to his successor Hermogenes, but were broken
by Dianius, who, after taking part in the Council of Antioch
(341), failed to defend St. Athanasius at Sardica, and fifteen
years later subscribed the Creed of Ariminum. In St. Cyril's
Lectures (347), we read of ' the new head of the dragon
sprung up in Galatia,' meaning Marcellus of Ancyra, now
fallen from his old orthodoxy ; and his frequent successor
Basil, denounced as a ' wolf ' at Sardica, earned his deposi-
tions from Catholics and Arians alike. The vacillations of
Eustathius of Sebaste in faith, as in his feelings and conduct
towards St. Basil (who was greatly his junior) are an indi-
cation of the state of the Church in Pontus. St. Basil's
account of him, in Ep. 263 (a.d. 377) to the Western Bishops,
is as follows :' There is then one of those who are giving
much pain to us, Eustathius of Sebaste in the Lesser
Armenia; who, long ago (circ. a.d. 320), became a disciple
of Arius, in his prosperous days at Alexandria, when he was
contriving his evil blasphemies against the Only Begotten
:
him he followed and was reckoned among the most genuine
of his pupils. On his return to his own land, when Her-

to account for his false doctrine, he presented a confession
of sound faith, lie was then ordained by Hermogenes, and

a man inferior to none in his support of the impious tenet
of Arius. Driven from Constantinople for some reason, he
came to his own people and again cleared himself, con-
cealing his impious belief by assenting to some correct form
of words. Then somehow or other (before a.d. 357) he was
made bishop, and we straightway find him at the semi-Arian
Council of Ancyra (a.d. 358) writing the anathema of the
Homoousion. Thence having come to Seleucia, he has
managed to do, with his party, the things that are known
tO all (peopaKe fi€Ta rcov eavrov ofxodo^cov a ndvres 'laraaw). But
in Constantinople (a.d. 359) he again gave his assent to the
creed presented by the heretics (sc. the creed of Ariminum).
And in this way, after being driven from his see, on account
of his having previously been degraded in Melitene (Armenia)
he devised a way of being restored by coming to you. Andwhat it was that was presented for his assent by Bishop
Liberius of blessed memory, and what he actually assented
to, we do not know ; we only know that he brought a letter
reinstating him, which he shewed in the council at Tyana
(a.d. 367), and was then reinstated in his place. He now
destroys the faith, on his assent to which he l was received,
and he associates with those who anathematize the Homo-ousion and is a leader of the heresy of the Pneumatomachi.'
In an earlier letter (244) to Eustathius himself (a.d. 376?),
St. Basil gave a similar account, only adding Lampsacus
(a.d. 365), Nike, and Cyzicus (a.d. 376?) to the formulae to
which Eustathius had subscribed : and he explains that at
Cyzicus the Homoousion was suppressed, the Kar ova-Lav
ofioiov was substituted, and Eunomius' blasphemies against
the Holy Spirit were adopted. In this letter Basil reminds

IV.
St. Basil.
While the Council of Ariminum was still pursuing its
miserable course (a.d. 359), the Council of Seleucia reached
its somewhat sudden and unprepared end through the inter-
vention of Leonas, the emperor's commissioner. Hilary was
there, and Meletius, afterwards the revered president at
Constantinople in 381. The majority deposed, in a fashion,
Acacius from Caesarea and his suffragan Uranius of Tyre,
Eudoxius from Antioch, George from Alexandria, and four
bishops of Asia ; and they at least had some claim to the
negative virtue of protesting against extreme Arianism by
their support of the Dedication Creed. We need not then
be surprised to find that St. Basil's first appearance in con-
troversy was when he accompanied the deputies of the
Council to Constantinople. He was born about a.d. 330,
and was brought up, without baptism, learning from his
grandmother Macrina something of what she had received
from the great Gregory of Neocaesarea. After well-spent
years of study at Caesarea, Constantinople, and Athens, he
had returned to Caesarea and received baptism from Dianius
his bishop about a.d. 357, and by him was ordained a
Reader. He then saw enough of monasticism in Egypt,
Syria, and Mesopotamia to be ready, on his return home, to
give up his goods and adopt their life, and practise true
1 philosophy according to the way of the church V Eusta-

thius (afterwards of Sebastc) had been of the same mind;
and we can imagine that St. B;isil accompanied his name-
sake of Ancyra and the bishop of Sebaste to Constantinople
in 359, or 360, much in the way in which an intelligent and
devout Oxford layman might have gone with the late Bishop
of Winchester to the Conference of Bonn in 1874. The
result of the visit to Constantinople was two-fold : Aetius,
the heretical counterfeit of St. Athanasius, was banished by
Constantius; but St. Basil's chiefs succumbed to the com-
bination of their Acacian opponents and the deputies from
Ariminum. This may explain the statement of St. Basil's
kindhearted but simple brother, Gregory of Nyssa, that they
were triumphantly victorious (Greg. Nyss. in Eunom. i. 289,
296), while the hard Arian Philostorgius (iii. 16), says they
were shamefully defeated. Basil of Ancyra, Eustathius (who
had been the accuser of Aetius before the emperor), with
Macedonius of Constantinople, Eleusius of Cyzicus, Silvanus
of Tarsus, and Cyril of Jerusalem, the very same bishops
who at Seleucia had just deposed Acacius and Eudoxius,
were by them deposed in their turn, and banished by the
emperor. St. Basil seems to have acted throughout these
proceedings consistently with his humble office in the Church,
and his modesty earned for him from Philostorgius (or most
probably from the writer's informant, Eunomius himself), the
imputation of timidity : oh aXKot re koi BaaiXcios erepos 7rapfjv

St. Basil and Dianius. xxxvii
Caesarea from Constantinople that the Benedictine editor
(Prudentius Maranus) refers the labours in defence of the
faith, which he himself mentions to Eustathius in his letter of
expostulation (223) against his false friend's three years of
calumny (a.D. 37 2—375) : T<* e7" Xa\Kr)86vos \aXrj6evra fjplv

implies, as is also implied by the title and contents of Ep. 8
referred to below, that in his own city St. Basil had already
been called by Dianius to use his powers of preaching. Abitter disappointment was however awaiting him, when he
reached Caesarea. His bishop had subscribed the formula
of Ariminum, as modified at Nike. This creed substituted

contained in Scripture, and vnoaraa-is also, 'for it too does
no good' (/cat yap ovhe oJpe'Ckei). St. Basil withdrew quietly
from Caesarea, and seems to have moved from town to town
till he reached his bosom friend, Gregory, son of the Bishop
of Nazianzus, a town of Cappadocia. In his retreat he
wrote a letter (Ep. 8) traditionally entitled rols Kaio-apevaip
dnoXoyia TvepX Trjs cnro)(wpr)o-ea)<; koi irepX Tviarecos, in which, after
referring to the unexpected blow which he had received, he
warns them against the Arian errors (to which they would
naturally be exposed by the submission of Dianius to Acacius
and Eudoxius), and expounds the doctrines of the Unity of
the Divine Nature, and of the Uncreated Trinity, showing
that it is impossible for such qualities as likeness or unlike-
ness to be applicable to the Son ; and after referring to the
perversion of scripture practised by heretics, he proceeds to
explain the texts about the Son which were misapplied by
them, e.g. John vi. 58, xiv. 28, Mark xiii. 32, Prov. viii. 22,
John v. 19; and then the similar supports of false doctrine
about the Holy Spirit, especially Ps. cxix. (cxviii. lxx.) 91.
During his retreat, and at the time of the Anomoean Council

at Antioch, St. Basil probably composed his Moralia, which
is a good specimen of the practical use he made of Holy
Scripture as a rule of life. About this time Julian s short
reign commenced, and St. Basil's experience of the death-
bed of Dianius left his heart tender through life towards all
who could be believed to have been unwittingly led astray.
Dianius in his last illness sent for St. Basil, and assured him
that, the Lord being witness to his truth, he had assented to
the document brought from Constantinople without intending
at all to efface the Creed put out by the Nicene Fathers, and
that in heart he was the same as when he first accepted it.
Indeed he went on to pray that he might share the blessed
lot of those 318 bishops who had given the truth (to eito-cpes
Kr]pvyfxa) to the world. The strange choice of a successor to
Dianius in Eusebius, a layman, his speedy baptism and con-
secration, and Julian's rage against Caesarea, soon followed
by his death and the accession of Jovian, were the circum-
stances under which St. Basil attempted a new work, the
refutation of Eunomius's Apology for Arianism. This was
written to meet a lower form of heresy than his subsequent
work De Spiritu Sancto, which deals with Macedonianism,
and which generally takes for granted that higher doctrine of
the Nature of the Son, which in the work of Eunomius was
denied. While he was attacking Arianism in Cappadocia,
St. Athanasius, after wrriting his epistles to Serapion, was
condemning Macedonianism and sending the letter to Jovian
which has been quoted in a previous section. St. Basil was
now ordained to the priesthood by Eusebius, and though he
spent some years in Pontus, in consequence, so it is be-
lieved, of his bishop's jealousy of his superior powers, he
returned when the Church of Caesarea was endangered by
the long dark days which began with the reign of Valens.
During this retreat, the Semiarians at the Council of
Lampsacus had tried once more to overcome Eudoxius and
Acacius. But they were not only baffled by the Imperial
power ; they also began to share with their Catholic brethren
Liberuis and the Semiarians. xxxix
in the persecutions which were promoted by their oppo-
nents. After holding various meetings in the provinces of
Asia, Pisidia, Isauria, Pamphylia and Lycia, their leaders,
Eustathius of Sebaste and Silvanus, the Metropolitan of
Cilicia, with one of his suffragans Theophilus of Castabala,
turned their hopes towards Liberius, the Pope; to whomthey came, as deputies, professing that they held the Catholic
Faith as tested by the 318 at Nicaea, and guarded by the
terms vnao-Taais and opoovenos, which latter they had al-
ready declared to be the meaning of their Kara rravra opoios.
They had before this, sc. at Lampsacus, denied the belief of
the Anomoeans, and they now anathematized especially the
Creed of Ariminum, which, as signed at Constantinople
through Arian trickery had proscribed the terms now ac-
cepted. Liberius received them to communion, and sent
them back with a letter testifying to the orthodoxy of their
statements. This letter was addressed by name to sixty-
three bishops of the Macedonians, the first of them being
Evethius the Bishop of Ephesus and exarch of Asia : others
are recognised as bishops of Sardis, Iconium, Magnesia, and
the greater part of them belonged to the provinces of Asia.
Not more than three can be recognized as belonging to
Pontus, and Marathonius's name does not occur. The
letter was presented at a council held, not in Asia under
Evethius, but in Pontus under Eusebius of Caesarea, at
Tyana, the seat of one of the suffragans in his Cappa-
docian province (a. d. 367). St. Basil is supposed by some
to have been a partner in suggesting the appeal of the
Semiarians to the help of Liberius. He was certainly back
again in Caesarea, and working cordially as a priest under
Eusebius, when the council of Tyana was held. But the
hope of realizing the union, .now almost in sight, by a more
general meeting of the Eastern Bishops at Tarsus, was
defeated by the Arian emperor ; and the Semiarian malcon-
tents, probably consisting of one half of the Arian bishops
addressed by Liberius, met in Caria, and rejected the very

basis of union, the Homoousion, thus rendering the Churches
of Asia, already weakened by heresy, still less able to repel
the assault of Valens' persecution. The Churches of Pontus
were happier in being able to suffer without flinching. St.
Basil's assistance was greatly helpful to Eusebius during the
last three years of his episcopate. He died about the same
time as Aetius and Eudoxius : and St. Basil, after an amount
of friendly help and unfriendly opposition, which made his
election as strange as that of his predecessor, was consecrated
to the uneasy office. All that he did during the short nine
years of his episcopate in consolidating his monastic institu-
tions, in attempting to maintain orthodoxy, and to conciliate
those who had erred, was a consistent sequel to the fourteen
years that had followed his baptism; and in defending the
Church from imperial violence, he shewed himself a true
shepherd and proved his claim to his epithet ' the Great 1 .'

St. Basil's troubles. xli
with his early death, is fuller of pathos than the long struggles
of his friend St. Athanasius, as he alternated between banish-
ment and restoration through forty-six years. The heart-
burns that attended St. Basil's election were scarcely allayed,
when his province was cut in two by Valens, and a rival
Metropolitan, Anthimus of Tyana, thrust in his face : insults
and threats, arguments and promises were followed by the
arrival of the Arian Emperor, as a raging lion, and his
intrusion into St. Basil's Church at Caesarea; and though
after St. Basil's bold resistance he withdrew, there was always
a prefect, ready to act, ' as a messenger of Satan/ in getting
rid of a faithful suffragan and putting an Arian in his place.
When he had reason to hope that Eustathius of Sebaste had
at last given in his adhesion to the Nicene faith, and ac-
knowledged the true meaning of its last clause as against the
Pneumatomachi, the news came of the death of St. Athanasius
his ' one comfort in woes ' (Ep. 80) : and the gleam of
brightness which came from the consecration of St. Ambrose
in distant Milan was soon obscured by the final lapse of Eus-
tathius into Homoiousianism and ' blasphemies ' concerning
the Holy Spirit, as the last of his long ' tale of faiths ' (tg>v
niarecov as dnrjpiOfxrjcranrjv). Throughout his labours on behalf
of the faith, his tenderness of heart, modified by the depres-
sion that arose from a diseased constitution, presented the
appearance of a tendency to Tritheism, or Sabellianism, or
whatever was the most objectionable heresy in the minds of
those who for any reason sat in judgment on him : and
though St. Athanasius 1 could discern his likeness to St. Paul

in becoming weak to the weak, he was misunderstood by
smaller minds, whose carpings sometimes wounded him
through his friends.
An instance of this is recorded at length in the letters
that passed between himself and his true friend, St. Gregory
of Nazianzus. St. Gregory (at the end of 372 or beginning
of 373) wrote to St. Basil, as having been from the beginning,
and still being, his guide in life and instructor in the faith
and in everything that could be called good (eyco ae kcu fiiov

Gregory said that his own words were not of any public
importance and did not require to be weighed, but that
Basil was watched by heretics, who were seeking to catch an
unmistakeable word from him to get him banished, and so
quench the last spark (amvBrip) of life and truth in the Church
of Caesarea and thence involve the world in woe : and it was
better to use restraint (olKovoprjOrjvai1
) in preaching the truth,
while the cloud was hanging over them, than by open pro-
clamation of it have the truth involved in ruin (KaTaXvdrjvai).
The Divinity of the Spirit could without harm be made
known in terms which implied it, rather than that the Church
should be injured by the truth being driven out in the person
of one man. However, the company sided with the monk,
and said that the reserve was out of date (ZeoXov), and a
mockery. They cried it down as a reserve of cowardice
1It should be noticed also that in the De Spiritu Sancto, St. Basil,
writing to convince the Pneumatomachi, not only did not use Qeos
of the Spirit, but he also refrained from using opoovoios of the Son,
in accordance with his own opinion expressed in Ep. 9, written soon
after the events at Constantinople in 360 and before the Council at
Alexandria in 362 : eyu de, el XP1 Tovfiov tdiov e'nreiv, to ofxoiov naT

rather than of doctrine: for it were much better to defend our
own side by means of the truth, than to injure (&\piiovp) our
side and not win over the adversary by this pretended
(8r)6cv) reserve. Gregory grew quite angry with them, and so
the company separated. He now asks his 'dear holy' friend
how far they should advance in the doctrine of the Divinity
of the Spirit, what terms they might use, and what reserve,
for it was a miserable thing not to have proper replies to
such gainsayers. In the next letter, Gregory says that he
felt from Basil's reply that he was hurt by the imputation,
but it is better to set the question right than to be vexed
with his counsellors : and he offered himself to follow him
or stand by him in contending for the truth.
Amid troubles and misunderstandings such as these, St.
Basil wrote the following treatise for his ' son ' Amphilo-
chius, who was first cousin to St. Gregory, and a native
of Caesarea. St. Basil, who would have welcomed him
as a Bishop in his own province, had recommended him for
election as Bishop of Iconium, and guided 1 him afterwards in
assisting to arrange ecclesiastical matters in the neighbouring
provinces of Isauria, Lycaonia, and Lycia. A letter of
Amphilochius is extant, written, as it appears, to some synod
of a neighbouring province, which refers to St. Basil's book,
and echoes the contents of it. It condemns (as does the
first Canon of 381) Anomoeans, Arians, and Pneumatomachi
:
and pressing on his friends the necessity of such a doxology
as is defended by St. Basil, lays emphasis, like his ' father
'
(top 6av[xacria>TaTov Kal jxera. rrdcrrjs aldovs ovofAa^ofxevov} on the
futility of persons avoiding communion with Arians, if they
fall into the irremissible sin by speaking against the Holy
Spirit.
St. Basil lived only long enough to hear of the tragic end
of his imperial enemy at Hadrianople, and to welcome the

promise of calmer weather in the restoration of exiled Bishops
by Gratian. He died at the age of fifty, one of the shortest
lived on the roll of the saints, January 1,379. Amphilochius
lived to take part in the Council of Constantinople in 381,
and to see the faith of the Nicene Fathers, for which St. Basil
had fought, acknowledged in its fulness throughout the
Churches, and was named, by a law of Theodosius, as one
of the centres and types of Catholic Communion in the diocese
of Asia.
ON THE 'ECONOMY' OF ST. BASIL.
I venture to give a short epitome of an essay, entitled
OiKovo/jLia Bao-iXeiov tov fj.eya.Xov, Prudentia Basilii Magni in
refutandis Haereticis, by Christian Gottlieb Wuilcknis (Leip-
sig, 1724), which discusses the 'economy' of St. Basil in
avoiding the actual phrase ' Spiritum Sanctum esse Deum.'
TO Hvtvpi tq §yL&v 6ffT"t 6 06 0^.
1. He remarks that an unfair judgment may arise from
perversity or from an inability to see whether Aristotle's
dictum ra. KaKa dyx'iOvpa rals aperals is or is not applicable to
such a matter : but his chief object is to prevent the wrong
following of St. Basil's example by those who Would recom-
mend their own strange and erroneous teaching as being
a similar ' economy/
2. He first notices the acknowledged fact of St. Basil's
orthodoxy: (1) from St. Athanasius's letters to John and
Antiochus, and to Palladius, and (2) from the writer's con-
temporary Scherzer (System. Theol. Art. ii. p. 78), ' Mace-
donium refutans Basilius opOodogodTaros, cum parum commodis
uteretur formulis, inter alia dicens, Tlvevpa to ayiov iariv £k
0foO narpos di Ylov aliis erroribus ansam dedit.'
3. St. Basil was accused at a dinner, in the presence of his
friend Gregory of Nazianzus, by a hot-headed monk, who
said he heard the Saint discoursing well on the Father and
xlviii On the ' Economy ' of St. Basil.
the Son, but quite the reverse of well on the Holy Spirit, and
that he deserved none of the praises bestowed on him by the
persons present.
4. On St. Gregory's writing (Ep. 26) an account of this
incident to St. Basil, the latter replied as if somewhat hurt
with his friend for caring for it, and as if he himself cared very
little for such criticism.
5. The three books against Eunomius were written when
he was only a priest, and show that he did not shrink from
the task of refuting heretics. His intercourse with such
people as the heathen sophist Libanius and the heretic
bishop Eustathius of Sebaste, was rather a matter of necessity
than an intimacy of choice.
6. His peculiar caution brought on him the suspicion of
heresy, for it led him to adopt new means of attacking
opponents who were well versed in eluding the ordinary
arguments : and the blind zeal of his age suspected his
methods, as a foreigner sometimes would suspect the current
coin of a country to which he had come : while his position
exposed him to the judgment of all sorts of men. Some of
his clergy also had reason to dislike his administration.
7. John of Constantinople, in his letter to Pope Constantine,
tried to shelter his compliance with the Monothelite injunc-
tions of the Emperor Bardanes by asserting that he had only
used the same sort of ' economy' ; but there is no resemblance
between St. Basil's action and that of John, and of his pre-
decessors Sergius and Paulus, with whom the writer classes
Honorius, ' the credulous Pope'
; for the Ecthesis and the
Typus imposed silence on truth and error alike.
8. There was ' scandal ' in the craft of Sergius and
Honorius, but none in St. Basil ; for ' scandal ' is when our
bad example leads another astray and makes him stumble.
The aim of St. Basil's silence was to lessen the power of the
enemies of the truth ; that of the Ecthesis and Typus to put
orthodoxy and heresy in the same position of equality. St.
Athanasius at the Council of Alexandria had certainly spoken
On the ' Economy ' of St. Basil. xlix
clearly, but there had been no plain statement in the fathers
preceding them, and of course no decree of a general council
applying the predicate ' God ' to the Holy Spirit.
9. Tamagninus, in his history of the Monothelites, points
out that they and Honorius were not to be likened to St.
Basil, but rather to those Arians who, after the Nicene
Council had defined the o^ioova-iov, wanted to have unity in
the Church by the suppression of both the orthodox definition
and the heretical opowvo-iov alike.
II.
1. St. Gregory of Nazianzus does not appear to have
delivered his Oration (xx) upon St. Basil actually at the
funeral or before a mixed congregation, but to have com-
posed it after St. Basil's death, as he did the Oration (xxi)
upon St. Athanasius.
2. In this Oration St. Gregory plainly declares that St.
Basil was watched by his enemies, who with their leader
(Valens) lay in wait to banish him, with his theological
tongue, if he dared to apply the word ' God ' to the Holy
Spirit, a term which they held to be ' impious/ But in
his treatises and in public teaching, if ever he had an
opportunity, and in private teaching, he always taught the
doctrine ; and in conversation with St. Gregory called down
on his own head the curse of falling away from the Spirit
Himself if he did not worship (o-e^oi) Him as of one
substance [S^oovo-lov) and of one honour (Sfiorifxov) with the
Father and the Son.
3. He used the word ' God/ e.g. in Ep. 141 to the Church
of Caesarea before he was Bishop, but not in his Homily DeFide. John Veccus, patriarch of Constantinople, who wrote
on the Procession of the Spirit, and who worked for the
reunion of the East and West, refers to St. Basil and St.
Gregory, and dwells on their agreement as to the duty of
brethren to disregard differences arising from words, as long
d
1 On the ' Economy ' of St. Basil,
as there is agreement in that which the words mean to
express.
4. The Benedictine editor notices St. Basil's silence, and,
while mentioning the arguments by which he proved the
Divinity of the Spirit, rejects such writings as the fifth book
against Eunomius, which says that the word God is applied
to the Spirit in Scripture.
5. Nicctas dilates at great length on St. Basil's economy
in his commentary on St. Gregory's Oration.
6. St. Gregory himself, in his 44th Oration (on Pentecost),
spoke openly to the Macedonians on the propriety of con-
tinuing to do the same ' as long as by different paths we are
going on to the same home.'
7. The writer of the essay thinks that what St. Gregory
says of the Arians watching for St. Basil to apply the word' God ' to the Spirit, refers specially to the time of the visit
of Valens to Caesarea, because such an accusation, however
serious it might have been during the emperor's presence,
would not have had the same weight after his departure and
his contributions to St. Basil's charities. The cause of his
silence would then have been not fear of banishment but
consideration for the weakness of the faith in some (' fidelium
causa, ut ego puto, sed credulorum nimis'). He refers to Ep.
203 (to the priests of Tarsus) and Ep. 204 (to the schismatics
in the same city), in which St. Basil proposes for the good of
the somewhat weak (tols dadevearepois). to abide by the Nicene
Creed, with the single addition of excommunicating those
who say that the Holy Spirit is a creature. He thinks there-
fore that there were two reasons : the hostility of the Arians,
denying, as they did, the Divinity of the Son and of the Holy
Spirit, and the halting faith of those who were tending to
Macedonianism.
On tlic ' Economy ' of St. Basil. li
III.
i. St. Basil had led a studious and pure life from the
beginning. His use of his 'economy/ lest he should be
banished from his see, was not prompted by love of money,
nor by ambition, nor by fear, for we see his freedom from
those infirmities in his life.
2. It is a question whether we are not right in avoiding
the mention of God in the presence of obstinate and irrecon-
cilable heretics.
3. We must remember that neither truth nor heresy is in
itself dependent on a single phrase ; any particular phrase
may be avoided or even rejected, while the heresy or the
truth expressed by it is retained. Constantine's objection to
the word Sfioovaios as new would not have made him a
heretic, if he had not shewn that his meaning was to avoid
also the doctrine ; and St. Basil's avoiding the term, that had
not yet been received by the Church, was far less objection-
able.
4. When we consider the many reasons which induce
people to incline to error or acquiesce in it, and the anger
they shew towards those who would convict them of it, and
remember the prevalence of Arianism and the imperial favour
shewn to it, we should accept St. Basil's attempts to main-
tain the controversy without exciting resentment which would
have made his opponents stop their ears.
5. A mOre open declaration of doctrine would only have
proved like pouring oil on fire, and Socrates (iv. n) speaks
of the exceeding carefulness (di imepftdWovaav evXdfitiav) of
Basil and Gregory.
6. St. Basil preached the truth in other words, and
charged St. Gregory to use the very word, which he, for the
reasons already considered, thought it good to avoid.
7. And the true doctrine was carefully inculcated upon
his brother St. Gregory of Nyssa, and upon the clergy, from
d 2
Hi On the ' Economy ' of St. Basil.
whom it would naturally come down to the lower ranks of the
Church.
8. It must be remembered that St. Athanasius at the
Council of Alexandria, in 362, was the only one who had used
the term. The Arians had an argument of a most telling
force with the uneducated against St. Basil if they could
accuse him of going beyond the letter of Scripture and the
text of the Nicene Creed and the fathers of the Church.
9. From that admitted fact the Arians of course went on
to deny the Divinity of the Holy Spirit, and the minds of the
vulgar were not intelligent enough to distinguish between
these two steps. St. Basil had to meet this craftiness.
10. The words Divinity and God are terms so closely
allied that one implies the other. St. Basil preached openly
that the Father is God and the Son is God. and that the
Father and the Son are of the same essence and have the
same attributes ; he also openly declared that the Holy Spirit
has the same divine attributes, and left it to be inferred that
He is God.
11. St. Basil lived in an age in which the use of new terms
was a matter, not for individual divines, but for a general
Council ; and uneducated people might well suspect all new
terms, for heresy as well as orthodoxy might suggest them.
12. We can only approach the idea of God's essence and
attributes by the way of negation, by denying all imperfection.
We do use the positive term Creator of the Universe; but
that only implies the more general negative, the denial of all
limits to His power. We all understand now that the Three
Divine Persons are removed by the same infiniteness from
the essence and attributes of the creature, and when St.
Basil (Ep. 203) laid down that no one could be admitted to
the communion of the Church who did not deny the Holy
Spirit to be a creature, he settled the whole question, which
his 'economy' is supposed to have let alone. For there is
no mean between Creator and creature, Perfect and imper-
fect.
On the ' Economy ' of St. Basil. liii
13. Any discussion of St. Basil's use of the word 'Lord'
of the Spirit, against Arians and Macedonians, is omitted for
want of contemporary evidence, and because the 5th book
against Eunomius is almost certainly not St. Basil's work.
Something might have been said on Vedelices' three books
De prudentia veteris Ecclesiae, and illustrations might have
been drawn from the Epistle of St. Hilary (of Poictiers) de
Synodis fidei catholicae et de Symbolis fidei\ but Cicero's
saying bids him conclude :' Qui aut tempus quid postulet,
non videt, aut plura loquitur, aut se ostentat, aut eorum,
quibuscum est, rationem non habet, is ineptus esse dicitur.'

Through the great kindness of D. S. Margoliouth, Esq.,
Laudian Professor of Arabic in the University of Oxford, two of
the very ancient Syriac versions in the British Museum have
been consulted in many passages. The MSS. are described as
follows :

DXLVII 'vellum a.d. 509 (add. 14542).' This MS. has no
divisions into chapters with distinct headings : a note on
fol. 94 b states that it is one of the 250 volumes brought to
the convent of S. Mary Deipara (Nitria) by the Abbat Moses
of Nisibis in the year 1243 (a.d. 932). The readings of
this version are indicated by S. A few paraphrases will
be found in the notes, marked in the same way.

SYNOPSIS
A. Introduction on the subject of the treatise, viz. the Catholic
forms of Gloria and the doctrine implied in the?n.
I.
i. The anxiety of Amphilochius that every word of a theological sentence
should be investigated is much more welcome than the many captious
enquiries of the day.
2. Such a minute study is a part of godliness and sound knowledge.
3
.
St. Basil will therefore give a clear exposition of the doctrine contained
in his forms of Gloria, to the Father, ' with (fte-rd) the Son, and with (avv)
the Spirit/ and 'by (Sm) the Son and in {kv) the Spirit,' of which some have
said that they contradict each other, and that the first is an innovation.
B. The Anomoean Arguments.
II.
4. The objections contain a veiled design on the truth : they are founded
on the statement of Aetius that the use of different prepositions connotes
unlikeness of nature, and that Scripture always speaks of the Father as the
Creator of Whom (££ ov) , the Son as the Assistant or Instrument by Whom(8t' ov), and the Spirit as Time or Place in Whom (kv u>).
III.
5. This position is borrowed from certain philosophical statements about
causes and the words used to express them, in which of (££) denotes the
material cause, by or through (816.) the instrumental cause, and in (kv) the
necessary conditions.
IV.
6. This the objectors modify so far as to substitute for the material cause
the supreme cause, as denoted by of (!£), in accordance with the apostolic
writings.
B
2 Synopsis.
C. Refutation of them on their ow?i grounds.
V.
7. Scripture does not always use these prepositions as alleged, e. g. 'of
!£) and ' by '(816.) are not to be opposed to one another, for they are both
applied to the same subject (the Lord) in Rom. xi. 36.
8. And if, as Anomoeans allege, the text refers to the Father, ' by ' {Jhi
cannot imply inferiority.
9. ' Of (!£) is often used both of the Son and the Spirit.
10. ' By ' (8id) is used of the Father and the Spirit.
11. 'In' (cv) is used of the Father. So that the premisses of the
Anomoeans suggest a conclusion directly contrary to their own.
12. In fact, in other connexions also, ' by ' (bid) and ' of (If) are inter-
changed in Scripture. And there is no rational ground for the distinction
they allege, nor for the conclusion they draw.
D. Anomoean phrases for the relation of the Son and the
Spirit to the Father.
VI.
13. They allege that the Son is ' after ' (fxerd with ace.) the Father, which
is consistent with ' by' (Sid) the Son, but not with 'with ' (fierd with gen.),
and the Spirit is ' under ' (biro) the Father and the Son.
14. Ans. (As regards the Son.) ' After ' cannot be used of the Son (i) in
respect of time
;
15. (ii) nor of position; (iii) nor of dignity. The true meaning of
standing or sitting at the Right Hand is not inferiority, but stability.
E. Explanation and defence of the Catholic forms of Gloria
to the Son (did, fxerd).
VII.
16. ' With ' (fierd) the Son is not a new form of Gloria, but is both ancient
and scriptural, used for giving glory, as ' by ' (did) the Son is used for giving
thanks.
VIII.
17. They do not contradict each other, for the titles in Scripture which
describe His work of grace suggest the use of ' by '( 81a) : and ' with ' (/J-erd)
is suggested by the titles which speak of His Nature.
18. ' Bridegroom,' ' Physician,' ' Way,' tell of our coming to the Father
' by ' Him.
19. 'True Light,' 'Righteous Judge,' ' Resurrection,' tell of grace coming
from the Father ' by ' Him. He Himself refers His instantaneous and
Synopsis. 3
manifold operations to the will of the Father, with Whom He is One in
Essence and in Power.
20. Yet the communications of the Father's Will to the Son are not by
time, or in measure.
21. 'By Him' (St' avrov) does not imply inferiority, but in expressing
the efficient cause, suggests that there is also the primary cause, i. e. the
Father.
F. On the Doctrine of the Holy Spirit.
IX.
22. St. Basil briefly summarizes the scriptural and traditional teaching as
to the Titles, Nature, and Operation of the Holy Spirit.
23. He describes the conditions and the results of His operations in the
soul.
G. (a) The Baptismal Formula teaches the equality of the
Spirit with the Father and the Son.
X.
24. The Arians' position is that the Holy Spirit is inferior to, and not
to be co-ordinated with the Father and the Son. This is inconsistent with
the Baptismal Formula.
25. It is an attack not on our form of Gloria, but on the Faith itself, de-
livered by the Apostles, and contained in the unwritten witness of the
Fathers.
26. We are in a state of salvation by the new birth in Baptism, through
'the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,' a doctrinal formula, from
which we may not diminish anything.
XL27. Our baptismal confession is that we believe in Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit. To deny the Holy Spirit or to fight against Him with subtilties, is
as injurious as to deny the Father or the Son.
XII.
28. The occasional mention of only one Name in references to Baptism
does not affect the vital necessity of the full formula both in Faith and
Baptism.
XIII.
29. \st Objection. l Beings of a different nature (e. g. angels) are con-
numerated with the Father and the Son.' Ans. Only as witnesses. The
Spirit is connumerated as Lord of Life.
30. There is a great difference between man's appeal to angels, or even
inanimate things, as witnesses, and the co-ordination of the Holy Spirit with
the Father and the Son by the Lord Himself.
B 2
4 Synopsis.
XIV.
31. 2nd Objection. We hear of baptism into Moses in the Cloud and the
Sea, and of believing (in) Moses.' Ans. Such baptism and faith were
typical. Marvels at the Exodus and in the Wilderness were striking benefits
at the time, and types of Christian grace.
32. The relation of type to antitype is not one of equality.
33. Baptism and faith in Moses really mean baptism and faith in the
Law, and were intended to lead up to the full light of the Gospel.
XV.
34. $rd Objection. 'We are baptized into water, without its sharing the
honour of the Father and the Son.'
35. Ans. In the true doctrine of Christian Baptism, water symbolizes our
death and burial with Christ ; but it is the Spirit, and not any natural power
of the water, that introduces us into the Resurrection-life.
36. ' Baptism into water ' may be used without confusion only of St. John's
baptism unto repentance, which is far inferior to Christian Baptism. In
the case of unbaptized martyrs alone can the water of Christian Baptism be
omitted.
XVI.
37. That the Baptismal Formula implies the absolute inseparability of the
Holy Spirit from the Father is shewn (i) by His work in Christian
prophesyings, by the guilt of Sapphira, and by His distribution of gifts,
ministries, and operations, with the Father and the Son
;
38. (ii) by His work among the hosts of heaven, created by the Son at
the will of the Father, and receiving from the Spirit their holiness, order,
knowledge, and continuance in bliss
;
39. (iii) by His operations in the Incarnate Life of the Son, and the
ordering of the Church
;
40. (iv) by His presence at the Second Coming to award rewards and
punishments ; and (v) lastly, and most clearly, by His knowledge of the
things of God.
(b) The Anomoean suggestion that it implies connumeration andsubnumeration, contrasted with the Catholic Doctrine of the
Holy Trinity.
XVII.
41. Subdivision and subnumeration cannot be applied to God.
42. It is impossible to distinguish the relative value of things by
connumeration and subnumeration.
43. The symmetrical Formula of Baptism must imply the connumeration
of the Son, and therefore cannot also imply the subnumeration of the Spirit.
Synopsis. 5
XVIII.
44. The enumeration of the Persons of the Blessed Trinity must be done
with reverence.
45. We worship 'God of God,' not implying 'second' God, but ac-
knowledging the distinction of Persons, and holding the Monarchy or
Singleness of Principle.
46. The Spirit too is ' of God/ and proceeds from the Father, and is the
Spirit of Christ. There is a reciprocity of Glory within the Blessed Trinity.
47. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are mutually related in Essence
and in the Work of Grace. The theory of subnumeration results in
absurdity.
H. The Doctrine of the Holy Spirit', as taught elsewhere in
Holy Scripture.
XIX.
48. The titles of the Spirit are shared by the Father and the Son.
49. His operations in Heaven, in the Incarnation, and in our Redemption
are Divine.
50. His intercession for us is like that of the Son, and is no sign of
inferiority.
XX.
51. ' Free' (as a mean between lord and slave) is a term of human rela-
tionship, and cannot properly be applied to spirits, blessed or fallen, still
less to the Spirit, Who, if created, would be a slave, like all created things,
but, being ' Uncreate,' shares the Divine Sovereignty.
XXI.
52. The Spirit is called Lord in Scripture. The Divine Indwelling and
the Divine Inspiration of Scripture are both from Him.
XXII.
53. Like the Father and the Son, He transcends human thought, and
unlike the heavenly powers, He is uncircumscribed.
XXIII.
54. His true Glory, like that of the Father and of the Son, is the telling
of His Attributes and His Mercies.
XXIV.
55. His Glory is above every created glory mentioned in Scripture.
56. His Holiness, Knowledge, and Life-giving Power prove His Divinity.
57. The gift of the Spirit, as the Spirit of Life and of Power, is as glorious
as the gift of the Son in the mystery of the Incarnation.

I . (a) Explanation and defence of the Catholic forms of Gloria

XXV.
58. Neither ' with the Spirit ' nor ' in the Spirit ' is to be found as a
doxology in Scripture ; both of them have come to us by the custom of
the Church ; and the meaning of each is connected with the other.
59. ' With the Spirit ' confutes both Sabellianisrn and Arianism more
forcibly than the scriptural ' and.'
60. St. Basil is ready to give up both, and say, ' Glory to Father and Son
and Spirit,' but the objectors maintain that ' in ' alone is suitable for the
Spirit.
(b) 'In the Spirit:
XXVI.
61. There are many meanings of 'in ' applicable to the Spirit's work of
grace
;
62. and to His presence, when we worship, and when we teach.
63. But no meaning of ' in ' is as suitable as ' with ' to express His
relation to the Father and the Son in giving glory.
64. Yet 'in the Spirit' may have a very high meaning if we bear in
mind the revelation of the Father ' in the Son,' and of the Son ' in the
Spirit.'
XXVII.
65. It is clear then that ' in ' is not used exclusively of the Holy Spirit, and
that the meaning of ' in the Spirit ' in no way supports the Arian doctrine
of His inferiority.
(c) ' With the Spirit:
66. 'With the Spirit' has the tacit sanction of Church tradition, like
many other very important words and rites in her worship.
67. These and especially the form of confession of faith at baptism have
come down to us by a channel which is outside the letter of Scripture.
68. ' In the Spirit ' and ' with the Spirit ' have each its proper meaning,
and to object to the latter is really to object to the ' and ' in the baptismal
formula of our Lord Himself.
XXVIII.
69. In Scripture, our present state of grace is ' with Christ'
; how muchmore is the Holy Spirit i with the Father and the Son ?
'
70. We hope to be glorified ' with Christ,' how much more must the
Holy Spirit be glorified ' with Him ?'
Synopsis. J
XXIX.
71. The use of ' with the Spirit ' came by tradition ; St. Basil received it
from his own Bishop [Dianius].
72. ' With the Spirit,' or an equivalent phrase, is used by Trenaeus,
Clemens Romanus, the two Dionysii, and Eusebius the historian.
73. It is supported by words in Origen and Africanus, and in ancient
hymns.
74. In St. Basil's own part of the world, Gregory of Neo-Caesarea, Firmi-
lianus, and Meletius used it, and the idioms of some languages support it.
75. It is no innovation, but a form which gives due honour to the Spirit.
K. Conclusion. On the evil condition of the Church at the
ti?ne of writing.
XXX.
76. The present state of the Church is like a battle between two fleets in
a storm, with every crew separated into factions at deadly feud with each
other.
77- But the simile fails to represent the confusions, the enmities, and
the miseries that have ensued from Arianism and its brood of heresies.
78. Words of wisdom are well nigh lost in the general tumult of contro-
versy.
79. Yet St. Basil has written, for lack of another champion, and out of
regard to the love and discretion of Amphilochius, and is ready to answer
any further inquiries, with the help of the same Spirit.
L. APPENDIX, (i) On the Knowledge of God.
EPISTLE 233.
1. There are three conditions of life, corresponding to the three ways in
which our minds energize, under the influence of (1) the Holy Spirit, or (2)
evil spirits, or (3) in a middle way, as when exercised on mechanical arts.
2. Our minds should be exercised on the truth, and so be led to the
knowledge of God, Who is absolute truth. As when we look up to heaven,
we only see it in part, so our knowledge of God is only in part here, and
will be more perfect hereafter.
EPISTLE 234.
1. We know What we worship, although we do not know His Essence,
for we know His attributes and His works.
2. We know that God is, by faith ; our knowledge of His Essence is our
sense that He is beyond our mind's comprehension.
3. The Only Begotten has declared Him, that is, His Power, not His
8 Synopsis.
Essence. As in the case of Abraham, and of the Apostles, we know God's
operations, from that knowledge we go on to faith, and then to worship.
EPISTLE 235.
1. Knowledge comes after belief in science, but before it in religion. Weknow God's attributes of wisdom, power, and goodness from the Creation,
and as a part of Creation recognize Him as our Creator. This knowledge is
followed by faith, and faith by worship.
2. Knowledge applies to many objects, e. g. number, size, power, mode of
existence, time of production, essence. We know what can be known of
God, and we do not know the rest ; this is true also of the sand, of a man,
and of ourselves.
3. What we know in part, is not the Essence of God, but His Creation of
us, His marvels, His commandments, His adoption. The Lord's know-
ledge of them that are His is His acceptance of them.
(ii) On our Lord's ignorance of the day and hour.
EPISTLE 236.
1
.
The proper explanation of the words about our Lord not knowing the
day of the end is that ' no one ' is not always absolutely exclusive in Scrip-
ture. The Image of God, by Whom He made the aeons, and to Whomthe signs of the end were known, must have known the end also : but it is
not wrong to refer the not-knowing to the dispensation by which Heassumed all things human.
2. The words of St. Matthew and those of St. Mark are not exactly the
same. The former, by ' save the Father only,' excludes the angels, but not
the Son, Who said, ' All things that the Father hath are Mine.' St. Mark's
meaning is that not even the Son would know, but for the Father from
Whom the knowledge was given.******(iii) On the trine i?mnersion in Baptism.
5. The trine immersion, which symbolized the three days of our Lord's
burial, necessitates a threefold emersion : but the emersion is not itself
symbolical.
(iv) On ousia and hypostasis.
6. The difference between ousia and hypostasis is like the difference
between the general and the particular : the confession of faith must express
both, as, ' I believe in God the Father, in God the Son, and in the Divine
Holy Spirit.' Those who use ousia and hypostasis as identical, fall into
Sabellianism when they speak of different Persons.

3. 10. vvv fi€v Mcto. k.t.X. The Arian Philostorgius (iii. 13) in noticing
the forms of Gloria does not mention this form (jx^rd, avv) and says that
Flavian at Antioch (Bishop from 381) was the first to use aloud (irpuiTov
avafiorjaai) the form ' to the Father and to the Son and to the HolySpirit.' This may be true as regards public worship in the Church at
Antioch (see esp. the story of Leontius quoted in Bright's Hist. p. 62)
;
but the writer was apparently not acquainted with the Martyr. Ign.
Ant. and Martyr. Polyc., or with the Apostolical Constitutions, in
which these forms (pcrd, avv) (jcai, nai) are found. He speaks of the
form (did, kv) as the more usual ; and St. Basil seems to say the same in
§ 72, T. iii. p. 61, Ben. (On the Apostolic Doxologies, see Westcott on
Ep. to Hebrews, p. 464.) Bona on the contrary writes (Rer. Liturg.
lib. II. c. iii. § 2) :' Primus qui eum (sc. Hymnum Gloria Patri) mutavit
Aetius fuisse dicitur, Ecclesiae Antiochenae Diaconus, Arianismi instau-
rator, sic cani instituens, Gloria Patri per Filium in Spiritu Sancto
;
quae verba licet per se nullam haeresim contineant, subdole tamen ab
Arianis usurpabantur, ut illorum aequivocatione suam impietatem cela-
rent. Illis in sensu orthodoxo usus est S. Leo, serm. 1 . de Nativitate
dicens : Agamus, dilectissimi, gratias Deo Patri per Filium eius in
Spiritu Sancto. At vero Basilius cum iisdem verbis sermonem ad popu-
lum conclusisset, Catholicis displicuit, et pro illorum defensione librum
apologeticum edidit, quem de Spiritu Sancto ad Amphilochium in-
scripsit, sed non omnibus satisfecit.' The Cardinal is certainly wrong
both in his statement about Aetius, and in his account of the occasion
and contents of St. Basil's writing. Bingham gives a fuller account of
the early doxologies. He says (XIV. ii. § 1) with reference to the
Gloria Patri now in ordinary use, that besides the occasional omission
of part of the response, ' There was another small difference, which yet
made no dispute among Catholics, till the rise of the Arian heresy, and
then it occasioned no small disturbance. The Catholics themselves of
Objections to St. Basils doxologies. 17

old were wont to say, some, " Glory be to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Ghost !" others, " Glory be to the P'ather, and to the
Son, with the Holy Ghost!" and others, "Glory be to the Father, in
or by the Son, and by the Holy Ghost !" Now these different ways of
expressing were all allowed, so long as no heterodox opinion wassuspected to be couched under them, as Valesius has observed in his
notes upon Socrates (i. 21) and Theodoret (ii. 24), and St. Basil showsmore at large in his book De Spiritu Sancto. But when Arius hadbroached his heresy in the world, his followers would use no other
form of glorification but the last, and made it a distinguishing character
of their party to say, " Glory be to the Father, in or by the Son and
Holy Ghost," intending hereby to denote, that the Son and Holy Ghost
were inferior to the Father in substance, and, as creatures, of a different
nature from Him, as Sozomen (iii. 20 e5o£a£oi> . . . Tlarepa hv Tta) . . .
favrepsieiv tuv Tldv aircxpaivovTes) and other ancient writers inform us.
And from this time it became scandalous, and brought any one under
the suspicion of heterodoxy to use it, because the Arians had now, as
it were, made it the shibboleth of their party. Philostorgius indeed
says (iii. 13) that the usual form of the Catholics was a novelty, and
that Flavian of Antioch was the first that brought in this form of
saying, " Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the HolyGhost !
" whereas all before him had said either, " Glory be to the
Father, by the Son, in the Holy Ghost" (teal ravr-qv jxakkov rty Ik^xjj-
vrjaii' ZmnoXafav), or, " Glory be to the Father, in the Son, and in the
Holy Ghost." But this is no more than what one might expect from
the partiality of an Arian historian, and it is abundantly confuted by
the ancient testimonies which St. Basil produces in his own vindication
against some who charged him with the like innovation ; in answer to
which he says, he did no more than what was done before by Irenaeus,
Clemens Romanus, the two Dionysii of Rome and Alexandria, Eusebius
of Caesarea, Origen, Africanus, Athenogenes, Gregory Thaumaturgus,
Firmilian and Meletius, and what was done in the prayers of the
Church, and with the consent of all the Eastern and Western Churches.
Which would make a man amazed to hear Cardinal Bona charging
St. Basil as blameworthy, for displeasing the Catholics in using the
form of the heterodox party ; when it is plain that it was the heterodox
party that quarrelled with him for using the Catholic form of the
Church. And yet, though he blames St. Basil without grounds, telling
us, "that a Catholic doctor ought to be without rebuke, and abstain
from terms that have a suspected sense, and offend pious ears," yet he
has nothing to say to Pope Leo, who, if either, was more certainly
liable to his censure, for using the Arian form of doxology, though in
a Catholic sense, in one of his Christmas sermons, which he thus words,
" Let us give thanks, beloved, to the Father, by His Son, in the Holy

" St. Basil never used this suspected form, though he says it
might be used with an orthodox meaning, but always, "Glory be to the
Father, with the Son and Holy Ghost !" For which he was charged by
some heterodox men as an innovator, but there was no room for Bona's
censure.'
It is somewhat strange that even Bingham here contradicts St. Basil's
own statement of his practice as given in this section ; and it is morestrange that, before Bona, Hooker (Eccl. Pol. V. xliii. 9, 10, 11) mis-
understood the intention of St. Basil's treatise, and the occasion of it.

cp-yavov. Philo (de Cher. § 35 ; i. 162 M.) speaks of opyavov 81
Koyov &(ov 5V ov KortoKtvaaQr) (sc. 6 tcocrfios). The word was after-
wards used by the Nestorians, opyavov ual hpyaXuov 7rjs Ocottjtos Kal
avOpojTTos 0ec0 pos (see § 12).
3. tov tottov. On the right use of roiros, see § 62. In Philo's
terminology Place is another name for the Son (Bigg's Christian Plato-
nists of Alexandria, p. 253). St. John Damasc. (De Orthod. Fid. i. 13)
says, 6 Qfos kavrov tottos \ari\ and Sir Isaac Newton, 'Deus durat
semper et adest ubique, et, existendo semper et ubique, durationem et
spatium constituit.' Dr. Pusey (Par. and Cath. Sermons, p. 503) says,
' Wherever God is, there is space ; for space is the Presence of God.'

The Anomoeans would give the title Srjfxiovpyos to the Father. In Neo-
Platonic philosophy, Srjfxiovpyos (If ovtojv) is opposed to ktio~tt)s (If ovk
ovtojv), Philo i. 632. In St. Athanasius (de Inc. iii. 2\ we have tcxvittjs
opposed to KTiGT-qs ( d s to uvat^, and iroi-qr-qs and 5rj/j.tovpy6s are equivalent
to ktiottjs. St. Basil (adv. Eunom. ii. 33) used KTio~fia in the higher sense
and 5T]p.iovpyr)/j.a in the lower, for he seems to think it worse to apply
the latter term to the Holy Spirit than to apply the former. We have
then (1) in the sense of creation (If ovk ovtcjv) Srjfiiovpyos (Anom.,
Athan.), Krlor-qs (Neo-Plat.,, Athan., and prob. Bas.), iroirjTrjs (Athan.);
and in the sense of fashioning (If 6vto.v) drj/xiovpyos (Neo-Plat., prob.
Bas.), and t€xv'

Tovpyiav. St. Basil less definitely puts for these two avvepyd rj ovvaina.
St. Basil himself speaking of the creation of the heavenly powers (c. xvi.
§ 38), calls the Father the primary cause (7-7)1/ rrpoKaTapKTiKqv aWiav),
the Son the fashioning cause (rr)v h-qniovpyiK-qv, cf. § 21 tov ttoi-qTtKov
alriov), and the Spirit the perfecting cause {ttjv Te\eiajTiKf)v, cf. § 61).
On the subject of this part of the book, the student should read New-man's Arians, c. i. § 2, 'The schools of the Sophists.'

ficult question of the meaning of this passage by changing the €vfx(rd-
poXov of R 2 into a/jLeraPoXov, and translating it, qui per patientiam
animam immutabilem praelmerunt. The reading of R2 may be trans-
lated, who have corrected their fickleness by endurance of ill; cf. § 35dopyrjcias Kal ravfivocppoovvrjs Kal /j.atcpodv/.uas, and to dopyrjTov, to
a.ve£iKaKov, to (piXrjb'ovias appvirairov, rb d<piXdpyvpov rov rponov, which
are his marks of the Gospel character. In Ep. 244 he speaks of to
ev/j.erd(3o\ou rov rpb-nov in reference to the varying faiths of Eustathius.
The text which has the best support of MSS., may be translated, whohave perfected their readiness to distribute by endurance of ill. TheSyriac paraphrase does not give any equivalent for 01' dvegiKatcias, and
seems to render rb €v/j.€rd8orov by amoris sui. The clause tovs trpoa-
7T((pevy6ras rfi kiriGTaoia avrov seems to be parallel to rwv itaraKovovrajv
avrov rrjs <pa)vr,s, and rb (vpurddorov St' dvfgi/caKtas KarwpOcxJKoras to fir)
-npoGtyovroiv hiba\ah £evi£ovaais. Much of this section is similar to
Origen's words on the names of our Lord. He speaks of ' sheep ' as
applicable to christians only when in a very imperfect state, as if he
remembered only St. Luke xv. 4, and not St. John x. 14 : (piXdvdpajnos

Council (§ 20) that the bishops at first used the words that 'the Wordis the true Power and Image of the Father, Like and Unvarying (d-nap-

22. Fialon (Etude litteraire sur Saint Basile, p. 244), says that this
chapter, and the short treatise, 1. 1, pp. 320-322, nepl rov TlvevpLaros, ' ne
sont que des centons du philosophe alexandrin ' (i. e. Plotinus), and he
gives a single reference viz. Ennead. v. 1, 52. The statement conies
from a tract, Basilius Magnus Plotinizans, by Alb. Jahn (Berne, 1838),
who acknowledges that he was intoxicated with the discovery. Thefoundation of it is that the treatise, irepl rov TlvevpLaros, which is almost
certainly spurious, contains doctrinal statements combined with a numberof sentences taken almost word for word from Plotinus, which Jahnputs in parallel columns with the original. The connexion of this
chapter of St. Basil's undoubted work with the works of Plotinus is
however entirely different : and the parallel phrases have to be picked
out of much longer sentences, and are only such imitations, or rather
echoes, as would be natural to St. Basil. It would be on the face of
it an extraordinary thing, if such a chapter as this could be composedout of the phrases of a heathen philosopher. The following is a
specimen of the parallelism alleged by Jahn.

When he begins his lectures on the subject (the sixteenth and seven-

He warns against those who separate the working of the Holy Spirit
(xa}p'i C(lu ToXp-wvTes ttjv tov dytov U.vevpuaTOs evepyeiav) : it was One HolySpirit who preached about the Christ by the Prophets, and when the
Christ came, descended, and manifested Him : no one may separate
the Old Covenant from the New, nor say, the Spirit in one is different
from the Spirit in the other. For so a man falls against (npoaKpovei)
the Holy Spirit, Who is honoured with the Father and the Son (to)
fiera Uarpi Kal tla> TeTipLrjfxeva)), and in the time of Holy Baptism is re-
ceived (with Them) in the Holy Trinity (ev rrj dyia Tpiddi ovpLnepiKapi.-

adds : Our hope is in (els) Father, Son, and Holy Spirit : we do not
preach three gods ; let the Marcionists be dumb ; but we preach OneGod, through One Son with the Holy Spirit (dAAd alv dyiw IIvev/xaTi,

{noirjTqi). To prove (1) that the Son was made, he quotes St. Peter,
as having his knowledge from God (Matt. xvi. 17) and saying (Acts ii.
36), God made ((7rotrj(re) Him Lord and Christ, and the Proverbs,
speaking in the person of the Lord, He established (e/cTfcrc) Me as the
beginning of His ways : and (2) that the Son made the Holy Spirit, he
quotes 1 Cor. viii. 6 and John i. 3. Later on he says, that the Son uses
the Paraclete as a servant (ynrjpeTr]) for the work of sanctifying : and
that the Holy Spirit has been put under Christ, and the Son Himself
under the Father according to 1 Cor. xv. 28. In a final summary, he
says, And through Him (the Son), He made the Holy Spirit first of all
and greater than all by His own authority and command, and by the
operation and power of the Son.
In all this Eunomius said he was holding to the things that had been
demonstrated long ago by the saints. His assertions were somewhatmodified in the later confession which he submitted to the EmperorTheodosius A. D. 383 (Socr. v. 10) : in which he got as far as ' Like with
a peculiar Likeness ' for the Son : but he speaks thus of the HolySpirit ;
' And after Him (the Son) we believe in the Paraclete, the
Spirit of truth, the Teacher of true religion (tt}s evoefHuas), made (7^0-
fxevov) by the Only God through the Only Begotten, and to Him once
for all subordinated (/ecu tovtoj KaOcurag viroTcraypevov), neither accord-
ing to the Father, nor with the Father connumerated (ovre Kara rov
Ilarepa ovtc tw TLarpl ovvapiOpovpevov), (for there is One only Father,
Who is God over all,) nor made equal to the Son (for the Son is Only
Begotten, having no brother begotten with Him), nor yet coordinated
with any other, for He transcends all the works made through the Son,
in origin, and nature, and glory, and knowledge, as first, and best, and
greatest, and fairest, of the works of the Only Begotten ; and He is
One and First and Alone, superior to {irpovx^v) all the works of the
Son in Essence and in natural Dignity, perfecting every operation, and
teaching according to the good pleasure of the Son, being sent by Him,
and receiving from Him, informing those who learn and instructing
them in the truth, sanctifying the holy, initiating those who approach
the Mystery (i. e. of Baptism), distributing every gift at the will of HimWho gives grace, working with the faithful to the vision and contem-
plation of the things that are commanded, sounding in them when they
pray, guiding to that which is profitable, strengthening them for true
religion {-npbs evaefieiav), enlightening souls with the light of know-
ledge, pulling down reasonings, keeping off daemons, and curing the
sick, healing the weak, turning back the wanderers, comforting the

thought and providence to lead onward the good and to guard the

St. Basil in the formula presented by him to Eustathius of Sebaste
(Ep. 125, a. D. 373) gives a summary of the heresies on the subject of
the Holy Spirit : which he attributes to Arius and his followers :' We
must anathematize those who say or think (roiis Xeyovras . . . /ecu tovs
voovvras ovtoj) that the Holy Spirit is a creature (/crto-fia), and those
who do not confess Him to be holy by nature (<pvcret ayiov) as the
Father and the Son are, but place Him outside the Divine Nature (d\\'
aiTogevovvTas avrd rrjs deias ical fxaKaplas (pvaeajs). A sign of an orthodox
mind is not to separate (x ojp'l C*lv) Him from the Father and the Son,
for we must be baptized as we received (jrapekafiofxev i Cor xi. 23 ; xv.
1) and believe as we are baptized, and give glory as we have believed,
but to withdraw ourselves from the communion of those who say that
He is a creature, as being manifestly blasphemers. Then we neither
call Him Unbegotten (ayewrjTov) nor Begotten {yevv-qrov), but weconfess Him to be of God, uncreate (If tov ®eov elvai clktIgtois) ; for
we have been taught that the Spirit of Truth proceeds from the Father
(Ik tov UaTpbs eKiropeveodai). We must further anathematize those
who say that the Holy Spirit is a ministering spirit (ketrovpytKou), and
we must shun those who invert the order of the names delivered by our
Lord in the baptismal formula.' The true doctrine implied in the
baptismal formula is the subject of the following nine chapters (x-xviii.
§§ 24-47).
1. <rvvT€Tax0cu. This is the word used by St. Athanasius (ad Serap.

sense of the Baptismal formula is (in St. Basil's words) that in the

fictitious ' bills ' in the Parable of the Unjust Steward. St. Gregory Naz.
(Orat. xxxi. § 3), says of heretics' use of Scripture, evdv/xa rrjs aoe&eias

Homoeans, the ' Scriptural ' party.

beginning of his first Epistle to Serapion, mentions the assertion of
heretics that the Holy Spirit is not only a creature, but one of the
ministering spirits, and higher than the Angels only in degree.

bocris here refers to the Baptismal formula and the faith in the Blessed
Trinity implied in it, and not to any mere traditional accompaniments;
this is plain from the original reference to the irapaboais in § 24, and
from the whole argument of the sections 27-47, which is in support of
the Catholic doctrine of the Blessed Trinity as involved in the formula.
Cf. especially § 28 T771/ ev tt/ (qjottoio> x^PlTl bebopevrjv vapaboGiv. It
is equivalent to the question in our own Prayer-book, 'With what
words was this Child baptized ? ' which is to be asked, when a child
baptized privately is ' brought into the Church.' The statement in
§ 66, as to buypara and KrjpvypaTa, 'direp dp-foTepa tt)v avr-qv Igxvv
e'x« irpos tt)v evae&eiav ' is not to be reckoned as identical with the
present passage. St. Athanasius maintained the emptiness of Arian
Baptism, because in their teaching they evacuated the true meaning
of the words used : el yap els bvop.a Tlarpbs Kal Tlov biboTai r) reKeiooais,

the same way baptism ' in the Spirit/ are solemn things (to ae/xvov,
§ 32) on a level with faith and baptism in the Father and in the
Son : but faith in Moses, and baptism into him and the cloud, are
on the level of a foreshadowing and a type. St. Basil in this section
confines himself to the types that are declared to be types in the NewTestament. The true typical event is defined towards the end of this
section, in the description of the sea and the cloud : trpus p.\v rb irapov,

terprets the word, 'sicut tertius a radice fructus ex frutice, et tertius a

nature also ' (rpirov elvai Kal rrj <pvo~ei ireinarevKap:ev). In the begin-

45. In this section, St. Basil's careful statements of the doctrine of
the Blessed Trinity correct the Arian expressions ; and yet he avoids
the word d/xoovaios in accordance with his words in Ep. 9 to Maximus(a.d. 361). See above, p. 46. In his Liber Apologeticus, Eunomiusattributed irpwros, devrepos, ttjs tavrov vrroGTaerews fteraSovs rqj yevvq-
Okvn, tcrov tw TlaTpl rov tlov, to the doctrine of the Church : and used
fiovos, as referring to the Father, in such a way as to exclude even the
likeness of nature, but not so as to exclude His Wisdom or His ' having
Immortality' (1 Tim. vi. 15, 16).

tended by St. Basil : * I both glorified and will glorify My Name as the
Father, in glorifying Thee as the Son.' Westcott refers the words' perhaps more especially to the great crises in His ministry, the Baptism
(Matt. iii. 17) and the Transfiguration (Matt. xvii. 5), in which His
Sonship, and so the Father's character, was revealed.'

gives of Soyfxa, and K-qpvy/xa in § 66. The usage of St. Dionysius of
Rome quoted by St. Athanasius (De Deer. Nic. Syn. § 26) was different :
he wrote of to ayiov Krjpvyfxa ttjs Movapx'ias : the term Kf)pvyfia, accord-

student; §§ 22-25 °f ^ are evidently notes of this portion of St. Basil

8. Kat to Ilvevjjia aoroO. In Is. xlviii. 16, St. Didymus, as translated
by St. Jerome, gives ' Spiritum suum ' ; the Targum has the same ; St.
Ambrose writes :' Quis est qui dicit ; Misit me Dominus Deus et Spiritus
Eius ; nisi Qui venit a Patre, ut salvos faceret peccatores ? Quem ut audis,
Et Spiritus misit ; ne cum legis quia Filius Spiritum mittit, inferioris
esse Spiritum crederes potestatis,' De Sp. S. iii. 1, § 7. The passage is
quoted by St. Athanasius, St. Basil, St. Cyril Hieros., and, as far as the
editor is aware, without any comment, which would help to determine
their way of understanding the case of to irvevpa ; but Origen, on the
words ' Whosoever shall humble himself as this little child ' (Comm.in Evang. Matth. torn. xiii. 18), says : eOTi de to raireivwoai eavrov ws

St. Clement of Rome to St. Basil's own time in §§ 71-74.

65. The doubt cast by Erasmus upon the genuineness of the latter
half of the treatise may be noticed in connexion with this section :
and the hastiness and vehemence of his followers present a curious
parallel to a certain section of modern 'higher criticism' as applied to
the Bible. In his Dedicatory Epistle, addressed to Bishop John, of Culmin Poland (1 530-1 538) Erasmus writes: ' Postquam dimidium operis
absolveram citra taedium, visa est mihi phrasis alium referre parentem,
aliumque spirare genium : interdum ad Tragicum Cothurnum intumes-
cebat oratio, rursus ad vulgarem sermonem subsidebat, interdum sub-
inane quiddam habere videbatur, vel ut ostcntantis se didicisse quae
Aristoteles in libro de Enuntiatione et Praedicamentis, Porphyrius in
libello de quinque vocibus praedicabilibus tradiderunt. Adhaec subinde
digrediebatur ab instituto, nee satis concinne redibat a digressione.
Postremo multa videbantur admisceri, quae non admodum facerent adid quod agitur, quaedam etiam repetuntur oblivione, verius quam judicio.
Quum Basilius ubique sit sanus, simplex et candidus, sibi constans,
atque etiam instans, nunquam ab eo quod agitur excurrens temere, nun-
quam divinis mysteriis admiscens philosophiam mundanam, nisi per ad-
versaries coactus, idque contemptim.' Erasmus however went on to say1 Sed hanc meam suspicionem nihil aliud haberi volo quam somnium,si tu dissenties.' Whether the Bishop thought it a dream or not, Cocus,
in his ' Censura quorundam scriptorum quae sub nominibus sanctorum
et veterum auctorum citari solent,' quotes it with approval ; but ac-
knowledges that Bellarmine (De Verbo Dei, lib. iv. cap. 7) cares nothing
for it, and that Coster (Apol. 2 pro 2 parte Enchirid.) ' impudently
asserts' that it is not to the point. Cocus ' confirms' Erasmus' criti-
cism by 'various arguments': (1) he calls the chapter on traditions a
lengthy talk (' longam fabulam ') and says it has nothing to do with the
origin of the phrase i ovv rw Ylvtvpari' (2) He impugns the statement
on the effect of rejecting unwritten practices ( § 66 t& dypacpa twv IOSjv
. . . TrapaireiaOai) as the assertion of a madman (' quis nisi delirans . . .
diceret ?'). (3) He misapplies the statement of the silent tradition of
doyfAcna to the mysteries of the Holy Trinity, the Incarnation, the Pas-
sion, the Forgiveness of sins and the Promise of eternal life, and then
calls the writer a trifler (' nugator '). (4) He asserts that the statements
on the reverence due to tradition directly contradict St. Basil's sermon' de Fide' as to rejecting anything contained in Scripture (' respuere ali-
quid eorum quae scriptura habet ') or bringing in anything that is not
written (' vel aut inducere quicquam quod scriptum non est '). (5) Heconfuses the Meletius of Pontus, who died circ. A.D. 330, with Meletius
of Antioch. who presided at the Council of Constantinople (a.d. 381),
and accuses the writer of doing it. Oudinus (Comm. de Scriptoribus
et Scriptis Eccl. i. p. 560 ff.) quotes these 'reasons' of Cocus, and adds
a sixth, which is really drawn from the spurious homily on the HolySpirit, and has most probably nothing to do with St. Basil.
Casaubon points out that Erasmus forgot the quotation of the
treatise by St. John Damascene as the thirty chapters to Amphilochius;
1 26 The use of the latter chapters
and the later discovery of the Syriac paraphrases of the whole book
pushes back this argument to about ioo years from the date of St.
Basil's writing. The peculiar care taken by St. Basil for the writing out
of the treatise, and for its safe arrival in Amphilochius' hands, and
the value set upon it by the friends of both make the forgery of half the
present book, and the substitution of it for the original within that period,
almost incredible.
This section is used in Philaret's Longer Catechism of the Eastern
Church, and the questions and answers that introduce it are given from
Blackmore's translation in ' The Doctrine of the Russian Church.'
On Holy Tradition and Holy Scripture.
16. How is divine revelation spread among men and preserved in the
true Church ?
By two channels—holy tradition and holy Scripture.
17. What is meant by the name holy tradition^
By the name holy tradition is meant the doctrine of the faith, the law
of God, the sacraments, and the ritual, as handed down by the true be-
lievers and worshippers of God by word and example from one to an-
other, and from generation to generation.
18. Is there any sure repository of holy tradition?
All true believers united by the holy tradition of the faith, collectively
and successively, by the will of God, compose the Church : and she is
the sure repository of holy tradition, or as St. Paul expresses it, the
Church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth (1 Tim.
iii. 15). St. Irenaeus writes thus : We ought not to seek among others
the truth which we may have for asking from the Church ; for in her,
as in a rich treasure house, the Apostles have laid up in its fulness
all that pertains to the truth, so that whosoever seeketh may receive
from her the food of life. She is the door of life (Adv. Haeres. lib. iii.
c. 4). *****21. Which is the more ancient, holy tradition or holy Scripture?
The most ancient and original instrument for spreading divine reve-
lation is holy tradition. From Adam to Moses there were no sacred
books. Our Lord Jesus Christ himself delivered His divine doctrine
and ordinances to His Disciples by word and example, but not by
writing. The same method was followed by the Apostles also at first,
when they spread abroad the faith and established the Church of Christ.
The necessity of tradition is further evident from this, that books can
be available only to a small part of mankind, but tradition to all.*****23. Must we follow holy tradition, even when we possess holy
Scripture ?
We must follow that tradition, which agrees with the divine reve-
lation and with holy Scripture, as is taught us by holy Scripture itself.
in the Greek Church. 127
The Apostle Paul writes : Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the
traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word or our epistle
(2 Thess. ii. 15).
24. Why is tradition necessary even now ?
As a guide to the right understanding of holy Scripture, for the right
ministration of the sacraments, and the preservation of sacred rites and
ceremonies in the purity of their original institution. St. Basil the
great says of this as follows : Of the doctrines and injunctions kept by
the Church, &c.

above that the dfxoovaiov, which many now-a-days would call the Nicene
dogma (ret tov bjxoovaiov doyfxara Soc. E. H. iii. io), because it wasput forth in the Council of Nicaea, was for that reason called not
SSffxa, but fcfjpvypa by St. Basil, who would have said that it became the
Krjpvjfxa (definition) of that Council, because it had always been the Soy/xa
of the Church ; so he calls the /xovapx'ia not ttrjpvypia but 86ypia. Thedistinction between the two meanings of doypa, (i) as in the mind, and
(2) as expressed to those who have to obey that mind (decree), should
be remembered (Luke ii. I (£r}\66 56yp,a irapd Kaiaapos Avyovcrrov :
Acts xvi. 4 (pvXaaoeiv ra SoypLara). The two meanings are also found
in the verb (doneiv) : St. Athanasius (De Syn. § 5) says irepl /xev tov

Eph. ii. 15')' Eunomius in his Conf. Fid. § 3 calls our Lord, fxeoiT-qs

proach to the ecclesiastical meaning ; but the definite use of St. Basil
is perhaps peculiar to him ; he applies it both to doctrines and to ritual
usages which had the tacit sanction of the Church : assigning Krjpvypia
to definitions of doctrine, and enjoined ritual. /crjpvyp.a is used in
St. Basil's definite sense in the Definition of Faith of the Council of Chal-
J 28 The value of unwritten tradition.

St. Mary's Virginity, and the Birth and the Death of our Lord are
called pLvar-qpia Kpavyrjs : which Dr. Lightfoot calls ' a stronger word
than Kr)pv£ea}s.,
It may be noted that heretical opinions are also called

tionem per Spiritus Sancti operationem, elementa sanctificari sic ut,

The words before the Consecration, to which St. Basil refers, are
probably the Benediction (2 Cor. xiii. 14), the Sursum Corda, and the
Hymn, ayios, ayios, ayios, k.t.K. ; and the words after it, the Words of

5. ovBe -yap oXcos, k.t.X. Syr. ' mysterium enimnon est res, quae patet
omni homini daturque auditioni auruim : neque sic cito datur mysterium
in scripto statutorum, ne forte, cum fieret cursus per consuetudinem se-
curus, haberet patefactionis indignitatem et contemncretur in multis
rebus.'
9. a\Xo yap SoYjia, k.t.X. Syr. ' aliud enim est traditio mysteriorum,
aliud praedicatio imperatoram ; mysteria vero filiis mysterii traduntur,
et praedicatio aperta est, tol-erans auditionem mnltorum. Mysterium
vero ubi editur e scripto, non sic simpliciter patent serrno de eo, ut per
hunc instruatur mens eorum qui occurrunt ei cum studio, et ut intelli-
gant ea, quorum difficilis est intuitus per suasionem eorum.'

against the compilers of the Creed of Nike and Ariminum as altered at
Constantinople for the pretended objection to ovaia as not contained in
Scripture, that all the heap of heretical phrases (pr/fxariajv ovp<per6v) put
forth by Arius are also condemned by it.

9. jrapd avSpos. St. Basil was baptized about a. d. 357, when twenty-
seven years old, by Dianius, the Archbishop of Caesarea ; and was by
him ordained reader.
72. 1. St. Basil's list of authorities is interesting as giving us some idea
of the contents of his library, as well as of his notion of arguments from
the w ritings of his predecessors. He begins with the distant west, Irenaeus
(Gaul, cir. A. D. 202), Clement (Rome, a.d. 100), and Dionysius (RomeA. d. 269) : then, of Alexandria, Dionysius and Origen, who were both
of them at the head of the Catechetical School, Origen having vacated it
a.d. 231, and Dionysius having succeeded to it about a.d. 233. But
Origen is mentioned by him between the two authorities from Palestine,
the historian Eusebius (who died a.d. 238), and Africanus (a.d. 240). Hethen quotes the authority of ancient hymns, that of the hymn <f)ws lAapov,
whose origin is lost in antiquity, and the hymn of the martyr Atheno-
140 by the tzvo Dionysii,

genes (who died about A. D. 196). Then he reviews his authorities
nearer home, Gregory of Neocaesarea (Pontus, a. d. 265), Meletius in
the same country, a contemporary of Eusebius of Caesarea (who says of
him Karevor\aap.ev, during his seven years of refuge in Palestine), and
Firmilian, a predecessor of St. Basil in the see of Caesarea (a.d. 236).
It may be noted that Irenaeus traditionally represented the teaching
of the Apostle St. John (through Polycarp) and Clement that of St.
Peter and St. Paul : and that Dionysius of Alexandria, Africanus, Gre-
gory, and Firmilianus were all of them pupils of Origen. Of these
Dionysius of Alexandria, Origen, Eusebius, Africanus, and Gregory used
the actual phrase ovv rw Ylvevpari, and Clement and the ancient Hymncoupled the Spirit of the Father and the Son with the conjunction kou :
while Dionysius of Alexandria, Origen, and Irenaeus spoke of the Divine
Trinity, the Divine Spirit, or the Divinity of the Holy Spirit. Theevidence of Athenogenes, Meletius, and Firmilian is not given. He does
not refer to Martyr. Ignat. Antioch., which in chap, vii has the phrase,
nor to Polycarp's dying words in Martyr. Polyc. chap, xiv, which also
contain it [ovv avrw (sc. t<£ Tla>) Kal Ylvevpari 'Ayiq>~], nor to the Apos-
tolical Constitutions, where it occurs frequently both in the parts which
are considered early documents, and in the apparently later additions.

nation of a quaternion of evilspeakers against Origen, Methodius Bishop
of Olympus in Lycia, Eustathius Bishop of Antioch, Apollinarius,
and Theophilus of Alexandria. Sozomen (vi. 17) says that Basil and
Gregory manfully opposed the dogmas of the Arians, proving that these
heretics rightly understood neither the data upon which they proceeded,
nor the opinions of Origen, upon which they mainly depended.
The following passages are given from Origen's works, of which
the first two may have been in St. Basil's mind : and the rest are speci-
mens of Origen's words on the doctrine of the Holy Spirit

Ptiuc. I. iii. 3 fin. Verumtamen usque ad praesens nullum ser-
monem in scriptis Sanctis invenire potuimus per quern Spiritus Sanctus
factura esse vel creatura diceretur, ne eo quidem modo quo de sapientia
referre Salomonem supra edocuimus, vel quae de Vita, vel Verbo, aliisque
appellationibus Filii Dei intelligenda esse tractavimus.
Princ. I. iii. 4 fin. Neque enim putandum est quod etiam Spiritus
Filio revelante cognoscit. Si enim revelante Filio cognoscit Patrem
Spiritus Sanctus, ergo ex ignorantia ad scientiam venit ; quod utique et
impium pariteret stultum est, Spiritum Sanctum confiteri et ignorantiam
ei adscribere. Non enim cum aliud aliquid esset antequam Spiritus
Sanctus, per profectum venit in hoc ut esset Spiritus Sanctus; ut quis
audeat dicere, quia tunc quidem cum nondum esset Spiritus Sanctus,
ignorabat Patrem, postea vero quam recepit scientiam, Spiritus Sanctus
effectus est;quod si esset, nunquam utique in unitate Trinitatis, id est,
Dei Patris inconvertibilis, et Filii ejus, etiam ipse Spiritus Sanctus habe-
retur, nisi quia et ipse semper erat Spiritus Sanctus.

given the empire of the East, and when St. Basil himself wrote against
Eunomius.

Cf. St. Basil's letters to the Western Church passim 242, 243 ; much of
his general depression, and the dismal tone of some of his letters, must
be put down to his diseased liver, which partly accounts for his com-
paratively early death at the age of 50. His brother Gregory reports
his grim reply to the threat of a lieutenant governor in Pontus, that he
would have his liver torn out ; it was spoken within a year of the date
of this treatise. The buoyancy of spirit shown by St. Athanasius (five
times driven from Alexandria) is a great contrast to the depression of
St. Basil, whose short episcopate of nine years was only harassed by
the fear, but never interrupted by the reality of exile.

Additional Note to § 66.
Bishop Moberly constantly makes use of this book, both in his
Sayings of the Great Forty Days, and in his Bampton Lectures (1868)
on The Administration of the Holy Spirit in the Body of Christ. In the
latter work (Lect. viii. p. 230, 2nd edition), he calls it ' that most precious
158 Additional Note.
Treatise on the Holy Spirit.' In the former work (Discourse iv, TheSacred Name, p. 213, 4th edition), he uses words which illustrate St.
Basil's statements on tradition : 'Of the details, indeed, and particulars
of the dogmatic teaching of the Apostles, they have left very small
written record. We know that they taught dogmatically ; we knowthat the writings of the New Testament are not their dogmatic teaching.
Those writings are without exception addressed to persons, already in-
structed, already put in charge of the sacred deposit of Christian truth
by the sacrament of Baptism.' He qualifies this statement, by adding
that ' no portion of the mass of divinely revealed truth lacks written
proof or confirmation from some part or other of their writings. But
that truth is nowhere exhibited entire, nowhere systematically or theo-
