CHAPTER I MARY THE MOTHER OF GOD i. The Heresy of Nestorianism.—The Ebionites, Photinus, and Paul of Samosata had undermined the dignity of Mary by attacking the Divinity of Jesus Christ; Nestorianism directly assailed the dogma of her divine motherhood. a) Nestorius was a pupil of Theodore of Mop- suestia, 3 who held that the Incarnation involved a complete transformation of the Logos, and that, consequently, Mary was the mother not of God (OeoroKos^ but of a mere man, though this man was the bearer of the Divine Logos. 4 This Mariological error naturally developed into the Christological heresy that there are two physical persons in Christ. b) The Third Ecumenical Council, which met in Ephesus on Whitsunday, 431, under the presi- dency of St. Cyril of Alexandria, 5 defined it as an article of faith that Mary is really and truly the 3 Theodore of Mopsuestia was 4 Cfr.

MARY THE MOTHER OF GOD toother of God. To emphasize this truth the Council employed the dogmatic term öcotokos, which was destined to become a touchstone of the true faith and, like opoovs 9 transsiibstantiatio, and ex opere operato, played an important part in the history of dogma. The very first of the anathematisms pronounced by the Council of Ephesus reads: "If any one does not profess that Emmanuel is truly God, and that consequently the Holy Virgin is the Mother of God—inasmuch as she gave birth in the flesh to the Word of God made flesh, according to what is written : 'The Word was made flesh'—let him be anathema." 6 This important definition was reiterated and confirmed by several later councils, notably those of Chalcedon (A. D. 451) and Con- stantinople (A. D. 553 ). 7 2. The Dogma of Mary's Divine Motherhood Proved from Sacred Scripture—The dogma that Mary is the mother of God is clearly and explicitly contained in Holy Scripture. a) True, the Bible does not employ the formal term "Mother of God," but refers to the Blessed 6 " Si quis non confitetur, Deum esse veraciter Emmanuel et propterea Dei genitricem (deoroKov) sanctam virginem: peperit (yeyevvrjice) enim secundum carnem factum Dei Verbum (ffdpica yeyovora rbv e/c 6eoü \6yov), secundum quod scriptum est: Verbum caro factum est, anathema sit."
