Akhi Judge,
It is true, however, that Theodore, Theodoret and Ibas were far more important to the CoE than Nestorius. Had they not condemned these men, the CoE would probably not have reacted the way they did. In other words, if only Nestorius was condemned, the reaction would probably have been quite different. These men were pillars in the ancient patrimony of the Antiochian tradition.
