The Nicene doctrinal term declaring the Son 'of one essence' with the Father, debated and defended throughout the window.
Here was the malicious abolition of "of one essence," as though it ought not to be understood in any Greek sense of denial;
which he taught us when he bade us conceive the Son as light of the same kind but lowered — not altering the essence, but contemplating the very same thing, surpassing and yet in abatement.
"One essence" is spoken of not only in respect of number, as you say, and of that which is within one bounding, but also, in a proper sense, of two men, and of anything else among things unified according to genus.
