Person
Cyril of Jerusalem
about 313–387
Bishop of Jerusalem
Attested. His presence in 381 is secure. How Nicene he was in the 350s is less tidy.
Cyril's Catechetical Lectures are a major picture of Jerusalem's liturgy in the mid-fourth century. His earlier career included exile and associations that were not simply Nicene. By 381 he sat with the Nicene majority at Constantinople. The lectures should not be quoted as if they were the creed of 381.
