Theodore (Latin: Theodorus) was the bishop of Marseille from at least 566 until 591/594. In the 580s, Theodore was at the centre of a dispute over the city of Marseille between King Guntram and his nephew, King Childebert II. He was arrested several times. His troubles are recorded by the contemporary historian Gregory of Tours, who depicts him as a saintly albeit powerless figure who was supported by the laity, but opposed by his own clergy.

  • Teodor de Marsella (Marsella, s. VI - 591) fou bisbe de Marsella entre 582 i 591. És venerat com a sant per diverses confessions cristianes. Teodor fou bisbe de Marsella des de 582. , que es deia fill del rei Clotari I desembarcà a Marsella provinent de Constantinoble;, i Teodor li va proporcionar cavalls perquè pogués anar a trobar el duc , al servei de Khildebert II. La seva actitud de lleialtat al austrasià representava un obstacle per als plans de Dinami de Marsella que, amb Gontran Boson, duc d'Alvèrnia, va fer detenir el bisbe, retraient-li que havia ajudat l'estranger per posar el regne sota la dominació bizantina. Teodor fou portat davant Gontran, amb el bisbe Epifani de Pavia que, de pas per Marsella, també fou acusat d'aquest. Un sínode a Mâcon, en 585, l'havia de condemnar a l'exili, però no va fer-ho i tornà a Marsella, on fou rebut triomfalment pel seu poble. Mentrestant, Dinami s'havia apoderat de tota la ciutat i rodalia i es va revoltar obertament contra Khildebert. El juny de 591, una carta del papa Gregori el Gran confia a Teodor que repari la falta feta per alguns preveres que havien bajetat jueus a la força. El papa l'exhorta a predicar als jueus perquè es converteixen convençuts. (ca)

  • Theodore (Latin: Theodorus) was the bishop of Marseille from at least 566 until 591/594. In the 580s, Theodore was at the centre of a dispute over the city of Marseille between King Guntram and his nephew, King Childebert II. He was arrested several times. His troubles are recorded by the contemporary historian Gregory of Tours, who depicts him as a saintly albeit powerless figure who was supported by the laity, but opposed by his own clergy. Venantius Fortunatus, in a poem of 566, asks Dynamius of Marseille to greet his bishop, Theodore, and his metropolitan, of Arles. The city of Marseille was at the time the most important Mediterranean port in Merovingian Francia. In 581, while he was on his way to Childebert's court, Theodore was arrested by Dynamius, then governor of Provence. The former governor, Jovinus, was arrested at the same time. The clergy of Marseille, immediately acted as if he was dead. The charges against him, which are unknown, were eventually dropped and he was escorted back to the city by Duke Gundulf, one of Childebert's men. Dynamius then accused of him of plotting against Guntram and again had him arrested. He was sent to Guntram, but the charges were dropped a second time and he was released. In 582, the Merovingian claimant Gundovald landed in Marseille to make a bid for a throne with Byzantine backing. He was formally greeted by Theodore, who was consequently arrested by on charges of treason. He claimed to have been acting on the orders of Childebert. Acquitted before Guntram, he nonetheless remained in prison for some time. Theodore was back in Marseille by 585, when Guntram accused him of responsibility for the assassination of King Chilperic I the previous year. Childebert had his duke, , arrest Theodore and send him to Guntram, who intended to have him exiled. Guntram and Childebert jointly convoked a synod at Troyes, but the bishops of the latter's kingdom refused to attend because of the planned prosecution of Theodore, which Childebert was also said to have opposed. Later in 585, Theodore attended the convoked by Guntram to discuss his case. When Guntram fell ill, Theodore was released. In June 591, Theodore and Bishop Virgilius of Arles received a letter from Pope Gregory I informing them that "very many ... of the Jewish religion ... from time to time traveling for various matters of business to the regions of Marseilles, have apprized us that many of the Jews settled in those parts have been brought to the font of baptism more by force than by preaching." The pope ordered Theodore and Virgilius to put a stop to the forced baptism of Jews. The diocese of Marseille remembers Theodore as a saint, keeping his feast on 3 February. His listed under 2 January in the revised Roman Martyrology of 2004, but is not listed in the General Roman Calendar. (en)
