A minor correction in that the Paschalion is not derived from Nicea: all that Nicea ruled was that we should feast on the same day and that we shouldn't use the Jewish Calendar (which had recently been reformed) to calculate the date.Huw Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13767334011657735131noreply@blogger.com
