Stephen of Ephesus information


Stephen of Ephesus (fl. 448–451) was a bishop of Ephesus, an attendee of the Second Council of Ephesus and the Council of Chalcedon. Stephen became a presbyter in the city of Ephesus about 400 AD and then bishop in 448 AD. He was a staunch rival of his predecessor Bassianus and, as Bassianus himself had done four years earlier, usurped the episcopal see of Ephesus by force. In 448 he threw Bassianus without a trial into prison.[1]
