St. Gregory "The Theologian" The Resurrection and the End of the Body As the Prison of the Mind.



The Resurrection and the End of the Body As the Prison of the Mind.

As a Hellenist Gregory doubts that the intellect is bound to the body. However, he knows what the Hellenes did not know: he knows that the body is created by God and that it becomes a prison for the mind only through the Fall. It ceases to be a prison by virtue of the resurrection of Christ. The mixture was leavened end became new.
