After the Council of Ephesus had condemned Nestorianism, there remained a conflict between Patriarchs John of Antioch and Cyril of Alexandria.

According to Christian sources, the Jews of Alexandria schemed against the Christians and killed many of them ; Cyril reacted and expelled either all of the Jews, or else only the murderers, from Alexandria, actually exerting a power that belonged to the civil officer, Orestes.

According to lexicographer William Smith, " She was accused of too much familiarity with Orestes, prefect of Alexandria, and the charge spread among the clergy, who took up the notion that she interrupted the friendship of Orestes with their archbishop, Cyril.

Cyril of Alexandria became noted in Church history because of his spirited fight for the title " Theotokos " during the First Council of Ephesus ( 431 ).

Cyril has also been portrayed in Ki Longfellow's Flow Down Like Silver, Hypatia of Alexandria.

In the 2009 film Agora, Cyril is played by Sami Samir as an extremist that opposes Orestes's attempts to harmonize the different communities of Alexandria.

Cyril Northcote Parkinson ( 30 July 1909 – 9 March 1993 ) was a British naval historian and author of some sixty books, the most famous of which was his bestseller Parkinson's Law, which led him to be also considered as an important scholar within the field of public administration.

However, the best modern analysis of the sources of the creed ( by A. de Halleux, in Revue Theologique de Louvain 7, 1976 ) and a reading of the acts, or proceedings, of the council ( recently translated into English ) show that the bishops considered Cyril the great authority and that even the language of ' two natures ' derives from him.

The English side's batting line-up was strong enough to be considered Test-strength, with players like Len Hutton, Wally Hammond, Les Ames, Bill Edrich and Cyril Washbrook, all of whom played Test cricket for England.

Cyril is well-known due to his dispute with Nestorius and his supporter Patriarch John of Antioch, whom Cyril excluded from the Council of Ephesus for arriving late.

Cyril gained an opportunity to restore Alexandria's pre-eminence over both Antioch and Constantinople when an Antiochine priest who was in Constantinople at Nestorius ' behest began to preach against calling Mary the " Mother of God ".

At Easter 429 A. D., Cyril wrote a letter to the Egyptian monks warning them of Nestorius ' views.

This began a series of letters between Cyril and Nestorius which gradually became more strident in tone.

Ephesus was friendly to Cyril, Emperor Theodosius convoked Council of Ephesus ( in 431 ) before Nestorius's supporters from Antioch and Syria had arrived and thus Nestorius refused to attend when summoned.

Having fled to Egypt, Cyril bribed Theodosius ' courtiers, and sent a mob led by Dalmatius, a hermit, to besiege Theodosius ' palace, and shout abuse ; the Emperor eventually gave in, sending Nestorius into minor exile ( Upper Egypt ).

Nestorius spoke of the distinct ' Jesus the man ' and ' the divine Logos ' in ways that Cyril thought were too dichotomous, widening the ontological gap between man and God in a way that some of his contemporaries believed would annihilate the person of Christ.

The main issue that prompted this dispute between Cyril and Nestorius was the question which arose at the Council of Constantinople: What exactly was the being to which Mary gave birth?

When reports of this reached the Apostolic Throne of Saint Mark, Pope Saint Cyril I of Alexandria acted quickly to correct this breach with orthodoxy, requesting that Nestorius repent.

Pope Cyril I of Alexandria, supported by the entire See, sent a letter to Nestorius known as " The Third Epistle of Saint Cyril to Nestorius.

" In these anathemas, Cyril excommunicated anyone who followed the teachings of Nestorius.

" Nestorius however, still would not repent and so this led to the convening of the First Ecumenical Council of Ephesus ( 431 ), over which Cyril presided.

Cyril was able to completely control the proceedings, completely neutralizing Candidian who favored Cyril's antagonist, Nestorius.

The proceedings of both councils were reported to the emperor who decided ultimately to depose Cyril, Memnon and Nestorius.

Nestorius ' teachings brought him into conflict with some other prominent church leaders, most notably Cyril of Alexandria, who criticized especially his rejection of the title Theotokos (" Bringer forth of God ") for the Virgin Mary.

Nestorius was especially criticized by Cyril, Pope ( Patriarch ) of Alexandria, who argued that Nestorius ' teachings undermined the unity of Christ's divine and human natures at the Incarnation.
