The Fathers of Gregoriou present a brilliant refutation of the widespread notion that Monophysites, the so-called “Oriental Orthodox,” such as the Copts, Armenians, and Ethiopians, are separated from True Orthodoxy only by minor semantic disagreements. Their familiarity with both the relevant Patristic sources and contemporary dialogues make this treatise essential reading for all Orthodox who want to rebut the facile assumption that there are no serious differences between Orthodoxy and Monophysitism.
