Person
Stephen of Rome
bishop 254–257
Bishop of Rome
Attested. The letters, mostly from Cyprian's side, are the source.
Stephen clashed with Cyprian over whether people baptized by schismatics must be baptized again. Stephen said no. Cyprian, with many eastern and African bishops, said yes. The quarrel shows that Roman advice was already weighty and already resistible.
