            Theodore was bishop of Philae in southern Egypt and had been ordained by patriarch Timothy IV (517-535). Joh. Eph., EH 4.9, describes him thus as a very old man in the mid-570s, when Longinus visited him and asked him to travel with him to Alexandria, a request which Theodore, however, denied due to his old age. During the 550s and 560s, he sometimes visited the Nobades in northern Nubia and acted as bishop there, according to Joh. Eph., EH 4.7 and 4.49.
