TL;DR: O'Keeffe as mentioned in this paper argues that the primar theological concern of the debated was the impassibility of God, and that the Alexandrians, rather than the Antiochenes, are shown to have defended more faithfully the humanity of the Son of God.
Abstract: Most textbook accounts of the fith-century christological debated suggest that the humanity of Jesus was the primary concern of the Antiochene theologians. From this perspective, Alexandrian christology, represented by Cyril, appears to have fundamentally misunderstood the meaning of the Incarnation. Dr. O'Keefe argues that the primar theological concern of the debated was the impassibility of God. Thus, the Alexandrians, rather than the Antiochenes, are shown to have defended more faithfully the humanity of the Son of God
