Two hundred and seventeen bishops assemble in …
Years: 535 - 535
Two hundred and seventeen bishops assemble in 535 in a council at Carthage and submit to Pope John II the question of whether bishops who had lapsed into Arianism should, on repentance, keep their rank or be admitted only to lay communion.
This question of readmittance to the lapsed will trouble North Africa’s Christians for centuries.
The answer to their question is given by Pope Agapetus, as John II dies on May 8, 535.
