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 first Bishop of Ravenna in Italy, he was tortured for the Orthodox Faith and died. The exact date is not known. His shrine is at the monastery of Classe in Ravenna. [11]
  3. "THE birthday of the holy bishop Apollinaris, who was consecrated at Rome by the apostle Peter, and sent to Ravenna, where he endured for the faith of Christ many different tribulations. He afterwards preached the Gospel in Æmilia, where he converted many from the worship of idols. Finally, returning to Ravenna, he terminated his confession of Christ by a glorious martyrdom under the Caesar Vespasian." [12]
  4. The entry in the Greek Synaxarion refers to him as "Hieromartyr Apollonius, the Bishop of Rome"; however there has never been a Pope of Rome with this name. The Parisian Codex 223 (Fonds Coislin) refers to him as a hieromartyr.
  5. "The same day, the birthday of the holy martyrs Trophimus and Theophilus, who received their crown of martyrdom by being beaten with stones, scorched with fire, and finally struck with the sword, in the time of the emperor Diocletian." [12]
  6. "In Bulgaria, many holy martyrs whom the impious emperor Nicephorus, whilst he was devastating the churches of God, put to death in various ways by the sword, the halter, arrows, long imprisonment, and starvation." [12]
  7. "At Le Mans, in France, St. Liborius, bishop and confessor." [12]
  8. Probably born in what is now Romania, he became a monk in Egypt and afterwards went to Marseilles in France, where he founded the monastery of St Victor and a convent, ruling both from Lérins. His Conferences and his Institutes are still read throughout the Orthodox world. He was an ardent advocate of the Orthodox teaching on free will and opposed what later became known as Augustianism.
  9. He attended the Councils of Riez (439) and Vaison (442). Some of his homilies still exist.
  10. "These servants of God, according to the tradition of the Church of Bayeux, were natives of Great Britain, driven from this country in consequence of their zeal for the Christian Faith, as it is conjectured, about the middle of the fifth century, at the time of the English invasion. They took refuge in a wood, now called Mace, near Seez, in Normandy, where they led a life of great austerity, clothed in skins, and nourished with wild roots. Their sanctity attracted many persons to their cell, which provoked the jealousy of the pagan governor of Neustria, who sent his satellites and caused them to be put to death. They were privately buried by the Christians in the forest; but after a time, the spot being miraculously discovered, a church was built over their sacred remains. At the period of the Norman invasion the relics were removed to St. Vedast, near Bayeux, and there remained until the eleventh century, when, in consequence of a divine revelation, the Bishop Hugh translated them to the Cathedral of Bayeux, where their festival was thenceforth observed with great solemnity. In the year 1562 the shrine was profaned, and the precious relics burned by the Calvinists." [24]
  11. "At Rome, the saintly virgins Romula, Redempta, and Herundines, mentioned by pope St. Gregory in his writings." [12]
  12. He was much troubled by Monothelitism. He consecrated Theodore of Tarsus as Archbishop of Canterbury in 668.
