The traditions of Imperial rule, law, and order could not be divorced from the " Eternal City," and the gradual decay of the Western Empire transferred these traditions from the Roman Emperor to the Roman Patriarch. We may note here that the word Patriarch was officially employed in the Acts of Chalcedon where allusion was made to the "most holy Patriarchs" of each Diocese (oa-uaTCLToi Harpidp DEGREESai StoiKya-ews eicwTTw}} S.

The title of "Archbishop " was reserved for the chief Metropolitans as a title of honour, and in course of time it was in certain cases used as a title of honour for certain Bishops who were not actually Metropolitans of Provinces.

This document's purpose is to spell out the Church's understanding of the nature of revelation--the process whereby God communicates with human beings. It touches upon questions about Scripture, tradition, and the teaching authority of the Church. The major concern of the document is to proclaim a Catholic understanding of the Bible as the "word of God." Key elements include: Trinitarian structure, roles of apostles and bishops, and biblical reading in a historical context.
