What is another word for council of ephesus?
Pronunciation: [kˈa͡ʊnsə͡l ɒv ˈɛfɛsəs] (IPA) 
The Council of Ephesus was a significant event in the history of the Christian Church. It was a gathering of bishops and theologians that took place in Ephesus, Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey) in 431 AD. The council was called by the Emperor Theodosius II to clarify the nature of Christ's divinity, specifically whether he had two natures (human and divine) or one. Some synonyms for the Council of Ephesus include the Council of Nestorius, the Third Ecumenical Council, and the Council of St. Cyril. The council ultimately affirmed that Christ had two distinct natures and this became a fundamental doctrine of the Church.
