Rufinus the Syrian or Rufinus of Syria (fl. c. 400) was a Christian theologian, priest and author, generally identified as a Pelagian. According to the anti-Pelagian writer Marius Mercator, Rufinus "of the Syrian nation" (natione Syrus) taught at Rome during the episcopate of Anastasius I (399–401) and through this teaching was a bad influence on the theology of Pelagius and his followers. There is disagreement between scholars over the correct reading of the word preceding natione Syrus: it is either quidam ("a nobody of Syrian race") or quondam ("at one time of the nation of Syria"). Walter Dunphy even argues that whole phrase is ultimately a copyist's error and that there was no Rufinus from Syria.

| - Rufinus the Syrian or Rufinus of Syria (fl. c. 400) was a Christian theologian, priest and author, generally identified as a Pelagian. According to the anti-Pelagian writer Marius Mercator, Rufinus "of the Syrian nation" (natione Syrus) taught at Rome during the episcopate of Anastasius I (399–401) and through this teaching was a bad influence on the theology of Pelagius and his followers. There is disagreement between scholars over the correct reading of the word preceding natione Syrus: it is either quidam ("a nobody of Syrian race") or quondam ("at one time of the nation of Syria"). Walter Dunphy even argues that whole phrase is ultimately a copyist's error and that there was no Rufinus from Syria. There are a total of seven references to persons named Rufinus from around 400 and scholars are unsure how many individuals lie behind them. There are three other Rufinuses who are often identified with the Mercator's Syrian Rufinus. If "Syrian" was being used in its broad sense (i.e., of Syria Palaestina), then Mercator's Rufinus may be identical to the Rufinus who was a monk in Bethlehem and went on a mission to the West for Jerome in early 399. The Syrian Rufinus is usually identified with the Rufinus who wrote the Liber de fide (Book of Faith), which survives in a single manuscript, now MS Q. v. 1. 6 in the Saint Petersburg Public Library. The manuscript describes the author as a priest from the province of Palestine. In this work Rufinus attacks Arianism, Origenism and the doctrine of original sin. The work was for a long time ascribed erroneously to Tyrannius Rufinus. The latter, also called Rufinus of Aquileia, was definitely a different person. The Syrian Rufinus is usually also identified with the "holy priest" mentioned by Caelestius at his trial in Carthage in 411. At that time the priest was already dead. (en)
- Rufin le Syrien est un prêtre chrétien qui vivait au début du Ve siècle. Selon Marius Mercator (Commonitorium adversus hæresim Pelagii et Caelestii), originaire de Syrie (Rufinus quondam natione Syrus) et disciple de Théodore de Mopsueste, il serait venu à Rome sous le pontificat du pape Anastase Ier (399-401) et aurait enseigné au moine breton Pélage la doctrine connue ensuite sous le nom de pélagianisme. On l'identifie au Rufinus presbyter provinciæ Palestinæ auteur d'un Libellus de fide (édité pour la première fois en 1650 par Jacques Sirmond d'après deux manuscrits de l'abbaye de Corbie). Les chapitres centraux de ce texte (§ 28-41) expriment clairement la doctrine pélagienne, à tel point qu'une note marginale ancienne d'un manuscrit met le lecteur en garde contre les « blasphèmes » dont ce livre est rempli, conseillant, si on recopie le manuscrit, de remplacer ce texte par le De vera religione de saint Augustin. Le colophon qui donne le nom de l'auteur précise que le livre est translatus de Græco in Latinum sermonem. Selon le jésuite Jean Garnier, qui réédita le texte en 1673 en même temps que les œuvres de Marius Mercator, le traducteur serait Julien d'Éclane. La comparaison de ce texte avec le De peccatorum meritis rédigé par saint Augustin en 411-412 montre à l'évidence que celui-ci le connaît et le cite pour le réfuter. Rufin le Syrien a été souvent confondu avec son contemporain Rufin d'Aquilée. L'identité des deux personnages a été soutenue par Eduard Schwarz; elle est toujours défendue par des savants comme Walter Dunphy. (fr)
