Oriental Orthodoxy
The term Oriental Orthodoxy refers to the communion of
Eastern Christian
Churches that recognize only the first four
ecumenical councils
— the
First Council of Nicaea
, the
First Council of Constantinople
, the
First Council of Ephesus
and the
Second Council of Ephesus
— and reject the
dogmatic definitions
of the
Council of Chalcedon
. Hence, these Churches are also called Old Oriental Churches. Despite potentially confusing nomenclature, Oriental Orthodox churches are distinct from the churches that are collectively referred to as
Eastern Orthodoxy
.
