The little work of Gaius, most of which we now possess under the title of Commentarii institutionum, had served this purpose for nearly four centuries; but much of it had, owing to changes in the law, become inapplicable, so that a new manual seemed to be required.
Dorotheus (first half of the 6th century AD), jurist, was one of the principal codifiers of Roman law under the emperor Justinian I. Dorotheus helped to compile the Digest, or Pandects (published in 533), and the second edition of the Codex Constitutionum (published in 534).
Dorotheus taught jurisprudence in the school of Roman law at Berytus at that time probably the best law school in the eastern Roman Empire.

He showed, moreover, that Peter and Cephas as two distinct individuals represents an ancient tradition that has never been lost in the Church.
