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. ^ On the first day of the Afterfeast of the Transfiguration, the hymns of Vespers speak of the amazement of the Apostles when they saw Christ transfigured before them. The Savior’s equality with the Father is also stressed, for He who covers Himself with light as with a garment is now transfigured before His disciples, "shining more brightly than the sun."[2]
  3. ^ He reposed in peace at the age of 116 years.
  4. ^ In most sources he is referred to as a "martyr and senator (palatine), killed by the sword". In the Synaxarion of Saint Nicodemus he is referred to as a "Venerable Martyr and Wonderworker." Name days celebrated today include:
    • Asterios (Ἀστέριος);
    • Astero (Ἀστέρω),
  5. ^ His commemoration day in the official Armenian Church calendar is a moving feast day, usually in the month of February.
  6. ^ He was cast into the fire to be martyred, but he emerged miraculously unharmed. Subsequently he reposed in peace.
  7. ^ Born in Athens in Greece, this Pope was martyred. While celebrating the liturgy in the catacomb of Praetextatus in Rome, he was arrested together with his deacons Felicissimus, Agapitus, Januarius, Magnus, Vincent and Stephen. All of them were martyred and later the seventh deacon St Laurence followed them.
  8. ^ "At Arezzo, in Tuscany, the birthday of St. Donatus, bishop and martyr, who among other miraculous deeds, made whole again by his prayers (as is related by the blessed pope Gregory), a sacred chalice which had been broken by Pagans. Being apprehended by the imperial officer Quadratian, in the persecution of Julian the Apostate, and refusing to sacrifice to idols, he was struck with the sword, and thus consummated his martyrdom. With him suffered also the blessed monk Hilarinus, whose feast is celebrated on the 16th of July, when his body was taken to Ostia."[28]
  9. ^ "At Rouen, the holy bishop St. Victricius. Whilst he was yet a soldier under Julian, he threw away his military belt for Christ, and after being subjected by the tribune to many torments, was condemned to capital punishment. But the executioner who had been sent to put him to death being struck blind, and the confessor's chains being loosened, he made his escape. Afterwards being made bishop, by preaching the word of God, he brought to the faith of Christ the barbarous people of Belgic Gaul, and finally died a confessor in peace."[28]
  10. ^ A monk at Luxeuil in France, he became Bishop of Besançon in 624. He did much to encourage monasticism and founded a monastery dedicated to St Paul in Besançon.
  11. ^ The "300 Allemagne Saints" ((in Greek): τριακοσίων Μαρτύρων καὶ Ὁσίων τῆς Κύπρου; or, ἐκ Παλαιστίνης ἐλθόντων εἰς Κύπρον τριακοσίων) came to Cyprus from Palestine, and lived as ascetics in various parts of the island. Included among the "300 Allemagne Saints" are:
    • Venerable Anastasios the Wonderwoker of Cyprus, September 17
    • Venerable Abbacum the Ascetic of Cyprus, Wonderworker, December 2
    • Venerable Cassian the Martyr (Kassianos), December 4
    • Venerable Calantius of Tamassos (Kalandios), April 26
    • Martyr Constantine of Cyprus (Constantine of Allemagne), Wonderworker, July 1
    According to some of their lives in the Great Synaxaristes, after the dissolution of the Second Crusade (1147 - 1149), they decided to live the monastic life in the Jordan desert. However since the Latins there disturbed them, they relocated to Cyprus and dispersed over the island.[35][36]
  12. ^ His feast day falls on August 6th, but since it coincides with the Feast of the Transfiguration, he is usually commemorated on August 7th. He is also commemorated on November 1st.
  13. ^ Soon after her marriage, both she and her husband asked for a blessing to enter into monasticism. She was tonsured at Vărzărești Skete and later labored in asceticism in the Sihla forest in the mountains of central Romania.[44]
  14. ^ His relics were translated on May 7, 1982.
  15. ^ Ioannis Vintsentzos was born at the village of Lithines, Sitia, at the chapel of Kapsa in 1799, when his parents, Emmauel and Zambia Vintsentzos had gone there to pay their respects to St. John the Baptist. The boy was baptised a few years later in the same chapel and was given the name Ioannis. As soon as he reached adulthood, he married a pious young maiden from his village. Their marriage was officiated at the Monastery of St. John the Baptist, which was in ruins. The surname 'Gerontogiannis' was attributed to the Saint by the family of his wife. Ioannis and his wife lived happily at the village of Lithines and devoted themselves to the upbringing of their children. On Easter Friday 1841 Ioannis fell in a deep sleep and all efforts to wake him up failed. Forty-three hours later Ioannis woke up to find his family and a number of friends at his bed side. He then related to them his experience during his short hibernation. He said that he had been taken up to heaven where he saw and heard things wonderful which cannot be put into words. Later Ioannis shared his experience with the bishop of Ierapetra and with the local commander. Taking his vision as a sign from God, Ioannis decided to leave his family and village and devote himself completely to God. As a place of asceticism, he chose his birthplace, where he was also baptized and got married. He was ordained monk and named Joseph. He practiced abstinence and penance. At the same time, he refurbished two cells of the local monastery to accommodate visitors, while he lived in a cave located over the monastery, on a steep slope in the gorge of Pervolakia. He lived there for 17 years, during which time novice monks and laymen consulted him. Owing to his fame and virtuous life he received an invitation by the head of the Monastery of Agia Sophia at Armenous to reconstruct of the monastic complex, which he rebuilt entirely from the ruins. The reconstruction work lasted five years (1866-1870). In 1870, the Saint returned to his hermitage where he died four years later, on August 6, 1874, at the age of 75. On May 7, 1982, there was a panegyric removal of the Saint's relics following an all-night vigil celebrated by the Metropolitan of Ierapythis and Siteias Kyros Filotheos, with Bishop Methodios Petrakis and clerics and a large congregation.[50]
  16. ^ This commemoration is preserved in several codices, in particular the Lavriotiko Codex I 73. Note, that the Akathist Hymn (Chairetismoi) to the Virgin Mary was written after Constantinople was liberated from this siege of 80,000 Avars, Slavs and the Persian fleet.[52][53]
