Event Factoid: The supporters of the synod of Chalcedon used troops to expell people from their homes, and to arrest, imprison, plunder, torture, and kill those who did not support the synod. The persecutors then turned their attention to Sergius, first using honeyed words and then threats when he refused to leave his enclosure. Sergius anathemized the persecutors as they pulled him out of his enclosure and expelled him from the community.
