Paulinus II was a claimant to the See of Antioch from 362 to 388. [1] He was supported by members of the Eustathian party, and was a rival to Meletius of Antioch . The Eustathians objected to Meletius having been consecrated by Arians , and had begun to meet separately. Lucifer of Calaris ordained Paulinus as bishop, thus effecting a schism in the church. [1]
Paulinus was "highly esteemed for piety." [1] He was acknowledged as bishop by Jerome , whom he ordained as priest, [2] and by Epiphanius of Salamis . [3]
Paulinus died in 388. His followers were called "Paulinians." [4]
