"Elipando de Toledo (717 - m.808) fue arzobispo de Toledo a finales del siglo VIII, y el principal defensor del adopcionismo. Sostuvo, quizás por influencia del islam y por el pasado visigodo arriano, que Cristo es Hijo de Dios no por naturaleza, sino por adopción del Padre. Defendió sus tesis en el Sínodo de Frankfurt (794), en una memoria dirigida a los obispos españoles, y en el Concilio de Aquisgrán (800). En este último se le enfrentó Alcuino de York, quien entabló debate con Elipando Contra él escribieron Beato de Liébana y Eterio de Osma el Apologeticum, un texto contra el adopcionismo cabiendo señalar, como curiosidad que, según la tradición, el Beato de Liébana le llamó «Testiculum anticristi» ("pequeño testigo del Anticristo"). Se afirma que murió en la llamada Jornada del foso de Toledo, acontecida en 797. Los once años de diferencia con la fecha en que se estima el óbito de Elipando (c. 808), hacen imposible esta aseveración."
"Elipando (717 - 808?) named Elipandus in some sources was a Spanish archbishop of Toledo and theologian. He was one of the founders of the Adoptivi sect. Although he affirmed Catholic teaching that Jesus is true Son of God, eternally begotten from God the Father and thus of one divine nature with the Father, he also proposed that Jesus, as the son of David, according to his human nature was the adopted rather than the natural son of God. Elipando's assertion seemed to suggest that Christ's human nature existed separately from His divine personhood. Thus, it seemed to be a nuanced form of Nestorianism and came to be known as Adoptionism. However, Elipando's Adoptionism was not the same as another ancient heresy also called Adoptionism. Elipando's teaching was condemned as heresy by the Councils of Ratisbon in 792 and of Frankfurt in 794. The heresy was rejected by the English theologian Alcuin who wrote, among many other works against adoptionism, a Treatise against Elipandus in four books. Paulinus II of Aquileia also composed a book refuting Elipandus unorthodox teachings for the Council of Frankfort."
