Fr.Dcn. Ananias Sorem returns to cover the relationship between Jerusalem and Athens – revelation and reason. Firstly, they are and aren’t in tension – and we’ll see how. Secondly, terms and words are not synonymous – there may be overlap at times, but the meanings of the words are unique in Orthodox theology.

“When God was conversing with Moses, He did not say, “I am the essence”, but “I am the One Who is.” Thus it is not the One Who is who derives from the essence, but essence which derives from Him, for it is He who contains all being in Himself.” -St. Gregory Palamas, Triads in Defense of the Holy Hesychasts, III.ii.12
