"In Illud: Omnia mihi tradita sunt a Patre" by Saint Athanasius is a theological homily focused on Matthew 11:27, reflecting the complexities of Christian doctrine, particularly regarding the nature of Jesus Christ in relation to the Father. Written during the early Christian period, likely in the 4th century, this book delves into discussions surrounding the divinity of Christ and the implications of His relationship with God the Father. Athanasius, a significant figure
in the early Church known for his staunch opposition to Arianism, addresses crucial theological questions concerning the nature of the Trinity and the role of Christ as both divine and human. In the text, Athanasius examines the phrase "omnia mihi tradita sunt a Patre" to argue that all things are entrusted to Christ by the Father, emphasizing that this signifies Christ's authority and divine nature rather than implying any subordination. He counters the Arian heresy that questions the pre-existence and divinity of Jesus by asserting that Christ is integral to the creation and sustenance of all things. The homily also highlights the purpose of Christ's incarnation: to restore humanity after the fall and to bridge the gap between God and man. Through this exposition of scripture and ecclesiastical doctrine, Athanasius aims to clarify the correct understanding of Christ's identity in the context of Christian faith, reinforcing the unity and co-eternity of the Son with the Father in the Holy Trinity.
