Pope Severinus had finally succeeded Honorius I …
Years: 640 - 640
Pope Severinus had finally succeeded Honorius I as the seventy-first pope on May 28, 640.
During the short time he is pope, Severinus condemns the Ecthesis.
Convening a synod, he decrees that “as there were two natures in Christ, so there were two natural operations.” He also renews the mosaics in the apse of Saint Peter’s Basilica.
Unfortunately Severinus was already quite old when his election was confirmed, and his reign is only two months long when he dies on August 2, 640.
Pope John IV succeeds Severinus as the 72nd pope; his election on December 24 is accepted by the Exarchate of Ravenna.
