"Why do they pronounce this ‘Ungeneracy’ to be the only intrinsic character in the Father, and thrust all the rest aside?"


"Why do they pronounce this ‘Ungeneracy’ to be the only intrinsic character in the Father, and thrust all the rest aside? It is in order that they may impair the mode of likeness, by this contrast as regards the begotten." (Con Eun. 1.1.143)

καὶ διὰ τί μόνον συμφυὲς ἀξίωμα τὴν ἀγεννησίαν ἐπὶ τοῦ πατρὸς δογματίζουσι, τὰ λοιπὰ παρωσά μενοι; ἵνα τῇ πρὸς τὸ γεννητὸν ἀντιδιαστολῇ τὸν τῆς ὁμοιότητος
κακουργήσωσι τρόπον.
