Abstract
This article aims to study some particular points of the development of patristic Christology up to Chalcedon, from a historical perspective, in order to show how the historical revelation of God in Jesus of Nazareth had an impact that brought about change in the system of thought. While Christology was gradually being established in the "back and forth" dialogue between the historical event and the thought categories, the purpose of this article is to show, above all, that the historical revelation had such an impact on the theological system that redefining its thought categories was required.
