Who

Bishop of Cyrrhus near Antioch from 423, the last great exegete of the Antiochene school, who opposed Cyril's Twelve Anathemas, was deposed at the "Robber Council" of 449 and restored at Chalcedon after anathematizing Nestorius. His commentaries on the Psalms, the prophets and Paul, the Eranistes dialogues, the Ecclesiastical History and the Religious History of the Syrian monks all survive. The Catena Aurea cites his commentaries.

See of Cyrrhus, 423–c. 458.
