ANDREW Bishop of Samosata.

ANDREW Bishop of 〈◊〉〈◊〉, was an 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Frie•••• of Thedet's, and observed al∣most the same way of De••••••ment. He was chosen by John Bishop of Antioch to confute * 1.1 S. Cyril's 〈◊〉〈◊〉, which he did with a great deal of moderation. We have yet that Work with S. Cyril's Answers. Andrew of Samosata, having seen them, he confured them by a more smart Writing * 1.2. 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Sinaita makes mention of this last, and recites a Frag∣ment of it in his Book, intitled, 〈◊〉〈◊〉▪ The Guide, Chap. 22. There are † 1.3 9 Letters of his in the Collection of F. 〈◊〉〈◊〉, by which it appears, That he condemned Rabbul••••, who had the boldness to 〈◊〉〈◊〉 〈◊〉〈◊〉 accursed; That he disallowed at first S. Cyril's Letter for the Union and Peace which was made with him, but that afterwards he yielded, following the Example of 〈◊〉〈◊〉, and counselled Alexander [Patriarch of Antioh] to do the same. He was condemned in the ••••am Council of Ephesus, if we may believe Theophanes. He was dead before the Council of Chalcedon, where his Successor, called Rufinus, was present.
