Scholarly opinion as to the veracity of Theorianos’ account in relation to the Armenian accounts is divided along lines indicated by Zekiyan. In particular, Tournebize tended to believe that Nerses actually did become a convert from the Armenian monophysite position and accepted the authority of Chalcedon, whereas the Armenian patriarch of Constantinople, Ormanian, is dismissive, thinking that the account of this first interview, as well as that of the second, are apologetic and that Theorianos only pretended to have prevailed. Tékéyan is the most balanced, steering a middle course, but agreeing with Ormanian that Theorianos was wrong to have claimed to have converted Nerses; Ter-Mikelian insists on Nerses’ adherence to the formula μία φύσις throughout. Zekiyan takes into consideration his first profession of faith and the encyclic epistle. His suggestion is that Nerses did not so much go back on his previous Christological position, as Theorianos would have us believe, as express regret that the misunderstandings of each other’s positions was so harmful to the Church. He also argues that Nerses now recognised that the Greek, Chalcedonian, position was not Nestorian. On the face of it, Zekiyan has a good case.
