Note 599 — PHOTIUS BIBLIOTHECA OR MYRIOBIBLON[6] (continued 5)
John Henry Freese translation
A sect named after Sabellius (second-third century A.D.). While denying that the Son was subordinate to the Father, they denied His real personality, and regarded the Trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as not real and eternal, but temporal and modalistic (different modes of the manifestations of the Divine Nature).
