Alexandrian Christianity

By F. Max Muller

Book Overview

Alexandrian Christianity is a scholarly work by F. Max Muller that explores the early Christian church in Alexandria, Egypt. Muller examines the theological and philosophical underpinnings of this unique branch of Christianity, which was heavily influenced by Greek philosophy and the teachings of the renowned scholar Origen. He delves into the history of the Alexandrian church, its key figures and their contributions, and the controversies that shaped its development. Muller also provides a detailed analysis of the Alexandrian approach to biblical interpretation, which emphasized allegory and spiritual meanings over literal readings of scripture. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity, early Christian theology, and the influence of Greek philosophy on religious thought.THIS 42 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Theosophy or Psychological Religion, by F.
