Synod of Antioch (Parish Synod, 341)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Synod of Antioch 341 was in the summer of that year at the inauguration of an even by Constantine I commissioned Basilica in Antioch held. There the resolution of the Synod on the rehabilitation of Athanasius held in Rome the previous year was rejected and a new creed, the so-called first Antiochene formula , was decided. Since the emperor of the eastern part of the Roman Empire , Constantius II , was also present, it was formally a synod of the empire .

Synod files have not been preserved, only reports in the church histories of Socrates Scholastikos and Sozomenos .
