Notes

  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. ^ Anastasius would visit the martyrs of the faith who were imprisoned, bringing them food and supplies and tending to their wounds. With this fervent faith, he one day witnessed to the local magistrate, who had imprisoned the Christians, that in vain were his attempts to drown the work of God. For this reason he was tortured and ultimately beheaded.[1]
  3. ^ In some Synaxaria he is listed as the Bishop of Ephesus, together with the Venerable Nonnus.
  4. ^ "AT Mutala, in Cappadocia, St. Sabas, abbot, who was renowned in Palestine for admirable examples of sanctity. He labored courageously in defending the Catholic faith against those who attacked the holy Council of Chalcedon."[3]
  5. ^ "At Nicaea, near the river Var, St. Bassus, bishop. In the persecution of Decius and Valerian, he was tortured by the governor Perennius for the faith of Christ, burned with hot plates of metal, beaten with rods and whips garnished with pieces of iron, and thrown into the fire. Having come out of it unhurt, he was transfixed with two spikes, and thus terminated an illustrious martyrdom."[3]
  6. ^ "At Thagura, in Africa, the holy martyrs Julius, Potamia, Crispinus, Felix, Gratus, and seven others."[3]
  7. ^ "At Thebesta, in Africa, during the time of Diocletian and Maximian, St. Chrispina, a woman of the highest nobility, who refused to sacrifice to idols, and was beheaded by order of the proconsul Anolinus. Her praises are often celebrated by St. Augustine."[3]
  8. ^ "At Pelino, in Abruzzo, St. Pelinus, Bishop of Brindisi. Under Julian the Apostate, because by his prayers he caused a temple of Mars to fall to the ground, he was most severely scourged by the idolatrous priests, and being pierced with eighty-five wounds, merited the crown of martyrdom."[3]
  9. ^ "ST. JUSTINIAN appears to have been a native of Continental Brittany, and to have come over to Wales, in order to serve God in detachment from all worldly connections. By his holy conversation he drew many souls to God, but at length feeling himself called to a more complete solitude, he crossed over to the Isle of Ramsey, where he found the holy hermit HONORIUS already settled. The two Saints lived together, helping one another by prayers and good counsels in their unwearied efforts after Christian perfection. Justinian lived in the time of St. David, who had a high veneration for his sanctity, and was accustomed to visit him on his island. At length the holy man was barbarously murdered by some wicked men, whose vices he had severely reproved, or, as some say, by pirates, who had landed on that shore. He died in a holy cause, and has received from the devotion of the faithful the glorious title of Martyr. The body of St. Justinian was taken to the mainland, and buried with honour."[15]
  10. ^ The last of the Gallo-Roman bishops of Trier in Germany, consecrated in 532. He had been a monk and abbot in his native Auvergne in France. As a bishop he withstood the cruelty of the Franks by whom he was exiled for a time. He restored discipline among the clergy, rebuilt the Cathedral and combated heresy.
  11. ^ Born in a noble family, he became Archdeacon of Tours in France, where his father was Bishop. Then he became a monk and founded monasteries at Méobecq and Lonrey (Longoretum). The latter was called Saint-Cyran after him.
  12. ^ They were hagiorites from various cells of the Karyes Skete on Mount Athos, who resisted Emperor Michael VIII Palaiologos and the Latinophile Patriarch John XI Bekkos, and received a martyric end. The first one of these was hanged, while the rest were beheaded.
  13. ^ The Monk Nektarios was raised by his father, who had accepted monasticism at the monastery of the holy Unmercenaries Cosmas and Damian in Bitolia (Bulgaria). He himself accepted tonsure on Holy Mount Athos, and did his obedience under experienced spiritual guides – the Monk Philotheos and the spiritual-elder Dionysios. Like Job, the monk experienced being struck down by exceptional bodily afflictions, and he peacefully gave up his soul to the Lord on 5 December 1500. Uncovered four years later, the holy relics of the saint exuded a wondrous fragrance.[23]
