Timothy of Constantinople

TIMOTEO di COSTANTINOPOLI. – Priest and treasurer of the church of S. Sofia.

He wrote, between the sixth and seventh centuries, under the title On Those Who Approach the Holy Church, a historical work in which the schisms and heresies of the sixth century, and especially the Monophysite sects, are listed. T. distinguishes those who must be baptized, those who are only to be confirmed, and those who simply make an abjuration at the moment of conversion.
