An exploration of the concept of perichoresis in the writings of John of Damascus.

The author set the context for John of Damascus and works through his major work on the Christian faith to explore how John of Damascus used the idea of perichoresis in his understanding of theology, Christology, and salvation. In terms of theology and Christology perichoresis is seen as the means by which John was able to well elucidate the "one in three" nature of the Godhead and to thread the needle between Nestorianism and Monophysitism.

A detailed but valuable consideration of perichoresis and its explanatory power in Christian theology.
