Oriental Catholic vs Byzantine Catholic ecclesiology

[Wandile]

How are the ecclesiologies different ? I’ve noticed from the Syrian tradition that there tends to be a bit more centralization although not like us Latins. The patriarchs of the Syriac traditions exercise a lot more of their personal authority than their Byzantine counterparts.

Where as Byzantine churches (Catholic and orthodox) tend to be overly decentralized and highly synodal to the point that the patriarch really has no significant authority (although the Code of Canons allows eastern patriarchs supreme authority in their territories/patriarchate/ churches).

What are the similarities and what are the differences? If anyone know much detail about their respective ecclesiologies

In terms of the way patriarchs in the Sui Iuris churches exercise their authority?

I know the absolutist, high and low Petrine views relate to the the authority of the Bishop of Rome in the universal church, advanced by Mardukum. But I’m concerned with patriarchs and how they exercise their authority in their respective traditions. Not concerned with the universal level but patriarchal level.

I will search though

Malphono is correct. The topic has been discussed ad infinitum (to put it nicely).

Oriental catholic ecclesiology matters. By reason of supernatural evidence, orientalism flourishes according to the divine plan that God can create from existence. Further, Byzantine catholic ecclesiology, rather, expounds the reality of supreme suffering. This includes the eternal sacrifice of the Eucharistic truth. The allegory is that God can be made from everything, which improves the intellectual understanding of what means to understand the divine true God.
