What is the nature of Dyothelitism according to the Council of Chalcedon? ------ At the Council of Chalcedon, the church taught that the Incarnate Lord Jesus Christ had two natures: divine and human, united in his one person (*Hypostatic union*), without mixing or blending them into one nature (*Monophysitism*). In this Christology, Jesus had two minds: divine mind and human mind (*Dyothelitism*). My question is specifically asking about the nature of the Dyothelitism. The following sub questions are really helpful in navigating for an answer: 1. What is the relationship of the divine mind with the human mind? 2. When Jesus was incarnated, did he use his human mind primarily? 3. If so, how did Jesus access his divine mind? Is it like a memory being remembered? 4. Was Jesus operating in both human mind and divine mind simultaneously when he was on earth? I am seeking answer from authoritative sources regardless of denomination. Preferrably those who believe in the Council of Chalcedon and Diothelitism. A Biblical answer is also acceptable as long as it can explain logically the nature of Dyothelitism.
