Trinity, Economy, and Scripture

Trinity, Economy, and Scripture, Volume 1, examines the theological contributions of Didymus the Blind, a prominent fourth-century teacher in Alexandria. While previous scholarship often focuses on his role as an exegete, Jonathan Hicks explores how Didymus used his dogmatic commitments to shape his reading of the Bible. This work of Christian theology and systematic study highlights the relationship between biblical interpretation and the Nicene faith.

The text focuses on biblical criticism and interpretation by analyzing the differences between Didymus and Theodore of Mopsuestia regarding the prophet Zechariah. By integrating pneumatology and ancient history, the author demonstrates how Trinitarian missions inform the divine economy of salvation. This scholarly analysis of religion provides a framework for understanding the origins of Scripture and its culmination in the Incarnation of Christ.
