event: Severus commanded Nicias to remain faithful to the sacred canons by stripping the deacons and priests on Minidus who had been ordained by Nestorians of their honor, titles, and ability to administer the sacraments. See factoid page
event: John confronted Theodora about the corrupt bishops and the persecution of Christians. Theodora, angry, sought to punish the jealous bishops, but relented after John interceded on their behalf. She commanded John to cease his ordinations, something he was glad to do due to a growing illness. See factoid page
event: Contrary to the opinion of Peter, Severus had not ordained Leontius out of need, but in order to honour the man. See factoid page
