The miaphysite John was nominally bishop of Chalcis on the Euphrates. Joh. Eph., EH 4.10 calls him 'John from the monastery of Mar Bassos'. This monastery, located in north-western Syria, likely was his main residence. Together with George of Beth Urtaye and Longinus, John ordained Theodore of Rhamnis patriarch of Alexandria in 575.
