Cyril the Bishop

Cyril, bishop of the church at Alexandria, published various treatises on various questions, and also composed many homilies, which the Greek bishops recommend for preaching. Other books of his are On the Downfall of the Synagogue; On Faith, against the Heretics; and a work aimed especially against Nestorius, entitled A Refutation, in which all the secrets of Nestorius are exposed and his published opinions are refuted.
