Listen "Henana of Adiabene (c. 545– 610 AD) – A theologian associated with the School of Nisibis."
Episode Synopsis
Henana of Adiabene, headmaster of the School of Nisibis, is presented as a significant yet controversial figure in Eastern Christian history. The text details his theological disagreements with established Antiochene traditions, leaning towards Byzantine thought and sparking significant ecclesiastical and political opposition. Despite the suppression of much of his work, his challenge to orthodoxy compelled important clarifications of Church of the East doctrine. The flourishing and subsequent decline of the School of Nisibis under his leadership are explored, alongside the political and intellectual climate that shaped the controversies surrounding him. Ultimately, Henana's story illustrates the complex dynamics of theological innovation and its reception within the context of late antique Christianity. for more in depth studies this is our website: www.twinsbiblicalacademy.com
