The Suffering of the Impassible God: The Dialectics of Patristic Thought - Oxford Early Christian Studies
Gavrilyuk, Paul L. (Assistant Professor of Historical Theology, University of St Thomas, St Paul, Minnesota)
Gavrilyuk reconsiders the issue of divine suffering and divine emotions in the early Church Fathers, who are commonly criticized for accepting the argument of Hellenistic philosophy that God cannot suffer or feel emotions. He shows that this view represents a misreading of the evidence.
