Disputatio de supposito, in qua plurima hactenus inaudita de Nestorio tanquam Orthodoxo, & de Cyrillo Alexandrino, alijsque episcopis Ephesi in Synodum coactis, tanquam haereticis demonstrantur, ut soli Scripturae sacrae infallibilitas asseruatur.

Very rare calvinist treatise on theological discussions debated at the Council of Ephesus and in 17th-c. controversies, defending the views of Nestorius against Cyril of Alexandria. It is sometimes attributed to the preacher Jean Bruguier (1618-1684) or to the philosopher David Derodon (1600-1664). The work was condemned to be burnt by the Parliament of Toulouse.
