Councils of Toledo

The Councils of Toledo refer to a series of church assemblies held in Toledo, Spain, primarily between the 4th and 7th centuries. They were important gatherings of bishops that addressed various theological, political, and social issues, particularly concerning the role of the Church in society and the relationship between the Church and the state. Notably, these councils played a significant role in defining Christian doctrine, combating heresies, and promoting the unity of the Church in the Iberian Peninsula. Their decisions often influenced the governance of early medieval Spain and the development of early Christian theology.
