Über diesen Titel

In the wake of the heresy propagated by Arius, which diminished the dignity of the Holy Ghost alongside that of the Son, St. Basil was compelled to clarify the true nature of the Holy Spirit. Arius claimed that the Three Persons of the Holy Trinity were fundamentally different in essence and glory. While the Nicene Creed provided clarity regarding the Son, it left the doctrine of the Holy Spirit somewhat ambiguous—not due to uncertainty, but because this aspect of Arian thought was less pronounced. In 374, Amphilochius, a close relative and spiritual confidant of Basil, encouraged him to address this crucial issue by composing a treatise. St. Basil embraced this challenge, ultimately completing his work and dedicating it to Amphilochius, who would ensure its preservation by having it meticulously copied onto parchment.
