Jung's index to Mysterium Coniunctionis places Hilary of Poitiers at multiple loci within the alchemical-theological argument, situating him as a patristic authority consulted across discussions of the coniunctio, the hierosgamos, and related symbolic formations.

The term προβολή, rendered prolatio by Tertullian and Hilary, was rejected as unsuitable to the idea of the Divine procession, e.g. by Athanasius

John of Damascus documents that Hilary, alongside Tertullian, employed the Latinism prolatio for divine procession, a term subsequently repudiated by Athanasius and Jerome as too close to Gnostic emanationism.
