Eustathius of Sebaste now launched an attack on Basil by circulating a document written by Apollinaris of Laodicea arguing that this showed that Apollinaris taught Sabellianism by minimizing the distinction of Persons in the Trinity and that Basil supported him in this.
The argument was doubly weak: it misrepresented Apollinaris, who may already have been manifesting the Christological heresy that was soon to bring his condemnation but whose Trinitarian teaching was substantially orthodox; and, as Basil pointed out (Letter 223) it assumed a connection between the two men which had not existed for many years.
But Eustathius of Sebaste had now veered toward their teaching and this had to draw Basil in.
