Orange, Councils of. Two synods were held at Orange in S. France in 441 and 529. The 25 dogmatic
capitula of the latter upheld many of St
Augustine's doctrines on the nature of
grace against the
Semipelagianism previously current in the region, though the Council repudiated any predestination of man to evil.
