Event Factoid
https://spear-prosop.org/3004-84Event Factoid: Severus argued
that by ordaining priests in a diocese that was not his own, Epiphanius was not
violating the sacred canons, which only outlaws such behavior in the
cases of bishops forcing themselves on other dioceses, citing the
examples of Eusebius of
Samosata during the controversy of
Arius,
Theodoret,
Basil, and
Gregory the
Theologian.
