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. ^ The Martyrs Elias, Probus and Ares, natives of Egypt, and heedless of their own safety, cared for Christians locked up in prison during the persecution of Maximian (305-313). For this they were arrested, subjected to torture and given over to death (+ 308).[5]
  3. ^ "At first, Gregory was a deacon in a church in Mediolanum [Milan] and had many visions. By God's providence he was taken to Alexandria. There Patriarch Proterius, according to a heavenly revelation, consecrated him Bishop of the land of Omir (Himyaritia) in southern Arabia, which St. Elesbaan the King (October 24) had just freed from the tyranny of Dunaan the Jew. He was a good shepherd and great miracle-worker. He organized the Church in Omir with the help of the Christ-loving King Abramius, built many churches, and baptized many Jews. By his prayers he performed great and awesome miracles, even bringing about a revelation of Christ the Lord before the unbelieving Jews, which led to their baptism. He governed the Church for thirty years and entered peacefully into life eternal in the year 552."[15]
  4. ^ (in Greek): "Ὅταν χήρεψε ἡ ἐπισκοπὴ Αἰθιοπίας, ὁ βασιλιὰς Ἐλεσβαᾶν ζήτησε ἀπὸ τὸν Πατριάρχη Ἀλεξανδρείας νὰ τοῦ στείλει ἐπίσκοπο μορφωμένο καὶ ἐνάρετο. Τότε ὁ Πατριάρχης ἐξέλεξε τὸν Γρηγέντιο, ὁ ὁποῖος ἐπετέλεσε τὴν ἀποστολή του μὲ πολὺ ζῆλο καὶ μεγάλη καρποφορία. Στὸν τόπο αὐτὸ ἦταν πολλοὶ Ἑβραῖοι καὶ ἦταν φανατικὰ προσκολλημένοι στὴ θεωρία τους. Ἕνας μάλιστα δεινὸς συζητητὴς ἀπ’ αὐτούς, ἦταν καὶ ὁ Ραβῖνος Ἐρβᾶς. Ἀλλὰ ὁ Γρηγέντιος, μὲ τὰ σοφὰ ἐπιχειρήματά του, τὴν ἀγαθότητά του καὶ μὲ τὴ θεία χάρη, κατόρθωσε νὰ φέρει στοὺς κόλπους τῆς Ἐκκλησίας τοὺς περισσότερους Ἑβραίους τοῦ τόπου καὶ τὸν ἴδιο τὸν Ἐρβᾶ, ποὺ βαπτίστηκε παρουσία τοῦ βασιλιὰ καὶ μετονομάστηκε Λέων καὶ τιμήθηκε μὲ τὸ ἀξίωμα τοῦ Πατρικίου. Ὁ διάδοχος τοῦ Ἐλεσβαᾶν, γιὸς τοῦ Ἔρδιδος, συνέχισε τὴν ἴδια πολιτικὴ εὐλάβειας πρὸς τὸν Γρηγέντιο. Ὁ Γρηγέντιος πέθανε εἰρηνικὰ στὶς 19 Δεκεμβρίου 552 καὶ τὴν στέρησή του, θρήνησε πολὺς κόσμος."[14]
  5. ^ Pope of Rome and a man of poverty and the apostolic mind, he stopped the spread of Origenism at a Council held in 400.
  6. ^ "The Monk Ilya Muromets of Pechersk, nicknamed "Chobotok" ("Shoemaker" or "Cobbler"), was from the city of Murom, and popular legend identifies him with the famous bogatyr-warrior hero Ilya Muromets, about whom were sung Russian byliny‑ballads. About the Monk Ilya is known, that he died with the fingers of his right hand formed for prayer in the position accepted even today in the Orthodox Church – the first three fingers together, and the two outermost last fingers contracted into the palm [in contrast to the hand formation in making the sign of the Cross used by the "Old Ritualist" "Staroverie" "Old Believers"]. In the period of the struggle with the Old Ritualist ("Staroobryadnyi") Schism (end of the 17th - 19th century), this fact from the life of the saint served as a powerful proof in the useage of the present hand formation."[24]
