| Summary: | Modern readings of the Council of Nicaea (325) show how the homousios should be considered an undue encroachment by Hellenic philosophy into the space of the purity of the biblical datum. In today’s context, however, we can read such a judgement as anachronistic, as the opposition between exegesis and metaphysics is historically unfounded. Plato’s own thought was born as an exegesis of myths, so the council fathers found themselves having to resolve a tension inherent in Origen theology, linked precisely to the relationship between his exegesis and the metaphysical thought inherited from the Greek context. The imperial choice of favouring a mere orthopraxis proved to be unsuccessful and therefore, in the course of the 4th century, the Cappadocian Fathers, in particular Gregory of Nyssa, had to reconcile metaphysics and exegesis with a new orthodox thought, in the light of which the krisis (judgement) operated by the Council of Nicaea acquires a new and potentially very useful value in the post-modern context. |
