The biblical interpretation of the Cappadocian Fathers Gregory the Theologian, Gregory of Nyssa, and Amphilochius of Iconium, as well as that of the traditional Antiochene scholars of the 4th and 5th centuries.

The special importance of the volume lies in the understanding of the biblical interpretation of the traditional Antiochene scholars and in the proof that there was never a strict distinction and confrontation between the exegetical schools of Alexandria and Antioch.
