Joshua Schachterle recently received his Ph.D. from the University of Denver/Iliff School of Theology Joint Doctoral Program. His dissertation was on New Testament and Early Christianity.
Description
To conclude, chapter six will sum up the case I have made. I then discuss the implications of such a conclusion. First, had separation been executed as Cassian may have intended, it may have created a very early “reformation,” with the church split between monastics and clergy. I then include possible avenues for further investigation around this topic.
