Tradition and Traditions

. . . Lossky begins with the well-known dichotomy of Scripture and Tradition. Commonly we consider this to be two sets of ‘revelation’. One of the written word, one of ‘unwritten, other words’ – i.e. liturgy, ecumenical councils etc. This dichotomy has had a great effect on Christianity in the world. Put simply, the concept of ‘sola scriptura’ is reliant on the idea that one of these means of revelation is true, and the other is not. However, Lossky denies this dichotomy . . .
