Sinopsis

On the Incarnation is the first classic work of developed Orthodox theology, wherein Saint Athanasius presents teachings on the redemption. Also, Athanasius puts forward the belief, referencingáJohn 1:1-4, that theáSon of God, the eternal Word through whom God created the world, entered that world in human form to lead men back into the harmony from which they had earlier fallen away.His writings were well regarded by all following Church fathers in the West and the East, who noted their rich devotion to theáWord-become-man, great pastoral concern and profound interest in monasticism. Athanasius is counted as one of the four great EasternáDoctors of the Churcháin theáCatholic Church.áIn theáEastern Orthodox Church, he is labeled as the 'Father of Orthodoxy.' Athanasius is also the first person to identify the same 27 books of the New Testament that are in use today.
