Gregory of Tatev


Gregory of Tatev, or Grigor Tatevatsi was an Armenian philosopher, theologian and a saint in the Armenian Apostolic Church. He was born in Tmkaberd.
Gregory was a faithful Monophysite, at a time when the Armenian church was building relations with the Miaphysite Roman Catholic Church. He wrote against uniting the Armenian church with Rome.
In 1397, during perpetual invasions by the Timurids, he completed the Book of Questions, an basic and comprehensive theological outline.
A monument to Tatevatsi was unveiled on October 16, 2010 in Goris, Armenia.
