Theodore of Mopsuestia — the Interpreter.
His biblical commentaries are the church's standard reading of scripture and his christology underlies its liturgy; the Syriac tradition calls him simply Mepashqana, the Interpreter. The Second Council of Constantinople condemned him in 553, a century and a half after his death. The Church of the East was outside the empire, did not attend, and kept him.
