James Good
A number of articles examining the history and significance of the title Mary, Mother of God.
In this booklet, James Good seeks to trace the origin and significance of the title ‘Mother of God,’ given to Mary, mother of Jesus, by the Council of Ephesus in 431 A. D. A number of articles follow which seek to illustrate the importance of the title and subjects related in some way to it, including historical developments since the title was first constructed in the early Greek-speaking Church, including attempts as late as the Second Vatican Council (1962-5) to extend its significance further.
