Cyril of Alexandria
His Life and Impact
Daniel Hames
6th book in Early Church Fathers series
Influential, theologically astute 5th century bishop
Safeguarded truth about nature and identity of God
Cyril of Alexandria (c. 376 – 444 AD) was a towering figure in early Christianity, renowned for his theological prowess and leadership. Daniel Hames unpacks Cyril’s tenure as Patriarch of Alexandria, marked by significant theological controversies, notably his fierce defense of the divinity of Christ against the teachings of Nestorius, culminating in the Council of Ephesus in 431 AD. Cyril’s legacy endures as one of the most influential figures in the development of the doctrine of Christ, shaping the theological landscape of Christianity for centuries to come.
