Sažetak
The doctrine of the Holy Trinity has long been central to Christian theology, prompting substantial debate and evolving interpretations over the centuries. Early theologians were instrumental in shaping the understanding of the Trinity, emphasizing both the unity and distinctiveness of its divine persons. This article delves into the theological progression of the Trinity, tracing its doctrinal evolution across various church councils. It also explores how early Christian art, particularly sarcophagi reliquaries from Syria adorned with concentric circles, crosses, and other symbols, visually communicated the Trinitarian principles of unity and distinctiveness.
