| 释义 |
Early LifeStephen became a presbyter in the city of Ephesus about 400AD and then Bishop in 448AD. He was a staunch rival of his predecessor Bassianus. Council of EphesusStephen of Ephesus supported Dioscorus at the Robber Council of 449. Dioscorus followed the heresy of Eutyches. For this Stephen and another bishop in Ephesus were deposed as bishop. Stephen then sought to depose his rival Bassianus from the cathedra of Ephesus in 444AD but Theodosius II deferred the dispute to the Council of Chalcedon which deprived both bishops of their see. Council of ChalcedonStephen addressed the Council of Chalcedon,[4] though his reputation was sorely questioned by the Council [5] Stephen was closely examined on his role at the Ephesus Council, and asked to provide records of the discussions there. He replied that he signed the Councils document under duress and that records were not preserved. The Council didn't accept his defenses. Bassianus and Stephen were then both retired on a pension with episcopal dignity, the council having found the behavior of both bishops unworthy of their seat.[6] In his career Stephen was allied with Flavian of Constantinople. Seven Sleepers of EphesusStephen is also the first recorded source of the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus.[7][8][9] A tale best known through its adaptation into the Quran. While some,[10] see the story as based in a genuine conviction of the time, other modern scholars have claimed Stephen used the seven sleepers legend to increase the presage of the bishopric in Ephesus.[11] References1. ^The Historicity of the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus. 2. ^Ernst Honigmann.
