Jasper, R.C.D. & Cuming, G.J. (1990). "Chapter 17: Theodore of Mopsuestia: Catecheses." (pp. 135-137). In Prayers of the Eucharist: Early and Reformed. 3rd Edition, Revised and Enlarged. Collegeville, MN: The Liturgical Press. (Personal Library)
Theodore, after becoming bishop of Mopsuestia in 392, prepared baptismal catechesis, probably first delivered as catechetical sermons in Antioch (Jasper & Cuming 1990, p. 135). Jasper and Cuming note this source can be used to glean portions of an anaphora in use at his time, and that these differ from "the Nestorian anaphora of Theodore" (Jasper & Cuming 1990, p. 135). The catecheses are extant only in Syriac.
After a brief bibliography, Jasper and Cuming provide an English translation of the relevant sentences of the sermons, giving eucharistic elements.
