Catholic Encyclopedia citation is false

It says:

In a letter to certain bishops of Gaul, dated 428, Celestine rebukes the adoption of special clerical garb by the clergy. He wrote: "We [the bishops and clergy] should be distinguished from the common people [plebe] by our learning, not by our clothes; by our conduct, not by our dress; by cleanness of mind, not by the care we spend upon our person".[4]

Nowhere in the cited encyclopedia article does it have this. The closest statement is that Pope St. Celestine I forbade Bishops to dress as Monks. Clearly, somewhat different!

The comment you cite comes from the article, "Clerical Costume," in the another volume.

What is meant by saying that Celestine "held" the Council of Ephesus? Although he was present, according to that article the council was convoked by the Byzantine emperor Theodosius II and presided by the Alexandrian patriarch/pope Cyril of Alexandria.

Pope St. Celestine was not present: He sent delegates. The Popes never attended one of the Eastern councils.Mwidunn (talk) 03:08, 4 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

feast day

according to this version of the Roman Martyrology, his feast is July 27. Where does April come from? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 13:13, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
