The double treatise of his youth, and the book that made the Nicene case a readable one: that the Word took a body because nothing less could undo death from the inside. NPNF II/4 prints it with the Four Discourses Against the Arians, the Defence of the Nicene Definition and the Life of Antony, so the volume carries both the Arian controversy and the desert in one binding.
