[= F. monophysite, μονοφυσίτης , one who held that Christ has but one nature, μόνος , single, + φύσις , nature: see physic .] I. n. One who holds that there is but one nature in Christ; more specifically, one of a sect which teaches that there is but one commingled or compound na- ture in Christ, partly divine and partly human, in contradistinction to the orthodox doctrine that by the incarnation two complete and per- fect natures, the divine and the human, are united without confusion or mutation in the one person of Christ. Among Monophysites in the wider sense are included the Eutychians and Monothelites. The sect of Eutychians was founded by Eutyches, who was con- demned at the Council of Chalcedon, A. D. 451. They taught that there is but one nature in Christ, the divine. The Monophysites properly so called hold that the divine and [NL.: see Monopneumones .] Same as Monop- human natures in Christ are combined into one compos- ite nature. The first leaders of the Monophysites, and founders of the present Monophysite or Coptic Church of Egypt, were Dioscorus, condemned at Chalcedon (died A. D. 454), and Timothy Elurus ('Cat'), made patriarch A. D. 457. In later times their most important leader was Severus, about A. D. 520, whose followers were called Se- verians, opposite Corrupt i cole, Monophysite or sect Phthartolatre , were known as while Julianists , those Aphof an thar to do cetæ , and Phantasiasts. In the sixth century the Monophysites spread widely in Syria, and were named Jacobites, from Jacob Baradæus, Bishop of Ede a, 541- 78. At various times the Monophysites divided into a great number of sects, known by more than thirty dif- ferent titles. These represented different shades of ori- ginal Eutychianism and Monophysitism and attempts at approach orthodoxy. The form of Monophy- sitism is Monothelitism (which see). Monophysitism is at the opposite pole of doctrine to Nestor i an ism, the ortho- dox doctrine as to the nature of Christ lying midway be- tween the two. As distinguished from the Monophysites, the orthodox are called Diphysites and Melchites . At present day the two great bodies of Monophysites are the Copts and the Syrian Jacobites. The Armenian Church is also often regarded as Monophysite or Eutychian, and the Maronites before their submi ion to the Roman Church were Monothelites.
