# John of Tella

> John of Tella, also known as John bar Qursos, was a 6th-century Syriac Orthodox bishop, theologian, and ascetic. He is best remembered for preserving the Syriac Orthodox Church during times of severe persecution in the eastern Byzantine Empire, near the Byzantine-Persian frontier, which led to various struggles with Chalcedonian leaders throughout his life.
