Christology: Measurement, Definition and approaches & Controversies and ecumenical councils (2nd–8th century)

Christology is a branch of Christian theology that concerns the nature of Jesus, which has been the topic of much debate over the centuries that culminated in the ecumenical Council of Chalcedon in 451 CE, issuing a formulation of the hypostatic union between a human and divine nature of Jesus, "united with neither confusion nor division."
