Stuck on three final clues...

4D D*B*E "named theologian entertaining bishops in posh quarters". I want to say 'dubbed' but not quite sure on the parsing.

23D *A*T*A "worker taken in by Greek character with a cloak". Mantra?Tantra? Again can't get the parsing right...

51D T*E*E "expression of comfort from one section of the army". Completely stumped on this one...

Any help gratefully received, thank you.

23 Mantua, cloak. Mu = Greek character, with Ant, worker inside, and add 'a' (in the clue). M ant u a.

51 There, expression of comfort. The+RE/Royal Engineers, section of army.

23d mantua is a cloak - mu is the greek character + ant + a
