Stephen,
Well, this discussion may be heading off-topic, and these are murky waters
anyway, so I'll sign off with a plug for a couple of articles by Joseph
Lienhard:
"Ousia and Hypostasis: The Cappadocian Settlement and the Theology of 'One
Hypostasis.'" In The Trinity: An Interdisciplinary Symposium on the Trinity,
ed. S. T. Davis, D. Kendall, and G. O'Collins, 99-121. Oxford: Oxford
University Press, 1999.
and
"The 'Arian' Controversy: Some Categories Reconsidered." Theological Studies
48 (1987): 415-37. Reprinted in Studies in Early Christianity, IX: Doctrines
of God and Christ in the Early Church, ed. Everett Ferguson, 87-109. New
York and London: Garland, 1993.
The latter reappears revised as a chapter in Lienhard's Contra Marcellum.

Dear Dr Ernest,
It seems inaccurate to say "different understanding", for to my knowledge
the understanding was always the same. What changed was the expression --
namely, clarification/refinement was added.
