This study provides an insight into the development of Christology in the early Cyril of Alexandria. It shows that Cyril's view of Christ and our salvation was heavily influenced by the Scripture and especially by the Pauline model of kenosis and obedience to the cross. Seen from this perspective, it is easy to understand the whole work of Christ. It is also from this perspective that Cyril developed his Christology, which he emphasized during the Nestorian controversy.
