Christotokos (Greek: Χριστοτόκος, English: Christ-bearer) is a Greek title of Mary, the mother of Jesus, used historically by non-Ephesian (or "Nestorian") Church of the East. Its literal English translations also include the one who gives birth to Christ. Less literal translations include Mother of Christ.[1]
