ID | Title | E02259 | John Chrysostom, in his homily On *Eustathios (bishop of Antioch, ob. 4th c., S01316), delivered during a service held at Antioch, stresses that, although buried in Thrace (eastern Balkans), the saint is revered in Antioch, and, although his death was peaceful, he can still be called a martyr. Written in Greek at Antioch (Syria) in the late 380s. | E03651 | The Church Calendar of Ioane Zosime, compiled in Georgian in the 10th century, based however on 5th-7th c. prototypes from Jerusalem, commemorates on 21 February *Adrianos and Natalia (martyr of Nicomedia and his pious wife, S01342), *Polycarp/Polykarpos (bishop and martyr of Smyrna, S00004), and *Eustathios (bishop of Antioch, ob. 337, S01316). | E05011 | The 6th/7th c. recension of the Latin Martyrologium Hieronymianum, as transmitted in 8th c. manuscripts, records the feasts of a number of saints on 6 November. | E08092 | Theodore Lector's Ecclesiastical History (28/epitome 435) states that the remains of *Eustathios (bishop of Antioch, ob. c. 337, S01316) were translated from Philippi in Macedonia to Antioch (Syria) in 479/484. Work originally written in Greek at either Gangra, northern Asia Minor, or Constantinople, c. 518/519, but only surviving in later, abbreviated versions. |
