Notes edit

  1. ^ The notation Old Style or (OS) is sometimes used to indicate a date in the Julian Calendar (which is used by churches on the "Old Calendar").
    The notation New Style or (NS), indicates a date in the Revised Julian calendar (which is used by churches on the "New Calendar").
  2. ^ "At Caesarea, in Palestine, in the persecution of Diocletian, under the governor Urbanus, St. Anectus, martyr. For having exhorted others to suffer martyrdom, and overthrown idols by his prayers, he was scourged by ten soldiers, had his hands and feet cut off, and by decapitation merited the crown of martyrdom."[6]
  3. ^ "Anectus, martyr at Caesarea, in Cappadocia, in the persecution of Diocletian, was arrested by order of Urban, governor of the province, because he exhorted other Christians to martyrdom, and because he had overthrown several idols in the excess of his zeal. He was condemned to be beaten by ten soldiers, and then to have his hands and feet and head cut off. The date of his martyrdom cannot be fixed exactly."[7]
  4. ^ "At Constantinople, St. Sampson, a priest who harbored the poor."[6]
  5. ^ "S. Sampson was born of honourable parents, related to the emperor, at Rome. He however lived in Constantinople, where he devoted himself to the care of the sick, for whose accommodation he opened a hospital. Justinian, the emperor, being afflicted with a distressing disorder, which the physicians were unable tc cure, applied to Sampson, who by his touch entirely removed the disease. The emperor in his gratitude would have lavished on him great gifts, but Sampson would accept nothing except a large and commodious building for conversion into a hospital."[14]
  6. ^ "At Córdoba, St. Zoilus, and nineteen other martyrs."[6] The monastery of San Zoil de Carrión in León in Spain was founded to enshrine his relics.
  7. ^ "Zoilus, martyr of Cordova, in Spain, was arrested in the persecution of Diocletian. Alter having endured various tortures, he was decapitated with twenty-nine others. A church was built at Cordova in his honour, and his relics are there preserved. Seven of the company suspiciously enough bear the names of the seven sons of S. Symphorosa, and in the same order."[20]

  10. ^ Hieromartyr Cyril Loukaris (†1638) was honoured as a Saint and Martyr shortly after his martyric death, and the Venerable Saint Eugenios of Aitolia (†1682, August 5) compiled an Akolouthia (Service) to celebrate his memory. The official glorification of Hieromartyr Cyril Loukaris took place by decision of the Holy Synod of the Patriarchate of Alexandria on October 6, 2009.[29][32]
  11. ^ While Cyril was several times deposed temporarily and banished at the instigation of his orthodox opponents and of the Jesuits, who were his bitterest enemies, his death came suddenly. According to Professor Christos Patrinellis:

    "The Catholic Church used all its religious and political influence to destroy this "son of darkness": the Jesuits and Capuchins of Constantinople, the French and Austrian ambassadors, the newly constituted Propaganda Fidei, Pope Urban VIII himself and even Louis XIII and the powerful Cardinal Richelieu. Almost any means of attacking Loukaris were regarded as legitimate because the motive was "sacred": these included threats and violence, bribing Turkish officials and pro-Catholic clerics in the circle of his successor Cyril Kontares, forging texts incriminating Loukaris, and claiming that the patriarch was inciting foreign powers against the Ottoman Empire. The Austrian Embassy planned Loukaris' assas[s]ination or his abduction to Italy and delivered to the Holy Inquisition. Eventually the Austrian ambassador and Kontares persuaded the Sublime Porte to eliminate the patriarch and he was strangled on June 27, 1638."[33]

  12. ^ (in Greek) "Στις 27 Ιουνίου του 1638 Λατίνοι και εβραίοι εξαγόρασαν με 4.000 τάλληρα τον Μέγα Βεζύρη Βαϊράμ Πασά και με διαταγή του συνελήφθη και εξετελέσθη ο Κύριλλος Λούκαρις με την κατηγορία ότι προπαρασκεύαζε εθνική επανάσταση των Ελλήνων με την βοήθεια των Ορθοδόξων Κοζάκων."[34]
  13. ^ Nicodemus the Hagiorite relays this narrative, concerning a certain philosopher named Evagrius, who was an idolater. Through Synesius' efforts, Evagrius and his children were baptized. In order to give thanks, Evagrius gave Synesius 300 gold pieces to distribute to the poor.
