late 6th or early 7th century) was a Christian theologian considered the last of the Neo-Chalcedonians.
He may be identified with the Theodore who was the bishop of nearby Pharan in the early 7th century and died before 625.
His major work is the Preparation,[b] which seeks to reconcile the terminology of Cyril of Alexandria (d. 441) with the canons of the Council of Chalcedon (451) as against the interpretations of the anti-Chalcedonian monophysites.
The first is a list of heresies of Christology from Mani to Severus of Antioch with their refutations, wherein he attacks the views of Julian of Halicarnassus and presents Chalcedonianism as a middle ground between monophysitism and Nestorianism.
[2][3][4] Theodore may also be the author of the treatise On Sects,[c] which is usually attributed to Leontius of Byzantium in the manuscripts.
