Council Of Cordova [1]
(Concilium Cordubense). Two of these provincial synods are mentioned:
I. Held A.D. 347 or 348, by Osius, bishop of Cordova, which reaffirmed the action of the Council of Sardica (Labbe, 2; Hardouin, 1).
II. Held A.D. 852, by order of Abderahman, the Moslem king, who caused the metropolitans of the different provinces to assemble. In this council voluntary martyrdom was condemned. This was not a legitimate synod. Eulogius speaks of it as a pseudo-council, not gathered together lawfully in the Holy Spirit, but collected by the advice of the infidels, and by order of a king, the impious enemy of the Christians. See Labbe, Concil. 8:76; Landon, Manual of Councils, s.v.
