Theodosius of Alexandria

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.02 sec.

Theodosius of Alexandria

(flourished 6th century—died June 566, Constantinople) Patriarch of Constantinople (535–566). A moderate Monophysite, he was opposed by more extreme Monophysites and did not accept the orthodox position expressed by the Council of Chalcedon (451). He was prevented from administering his patriarchate by his detention in Constantinople, but he influenced the independent churches in Antioch, Syria, and Egypt. See Monophysite heresy.
