Οἱ Ἅγιοι Ἄγαβος, Ἀσύγκριτος, Ἑρμῆς, Ἡρωδίων Ἐπίσκοπος, Ροῦφος καὶ Φλέγων οἱ Ἀπόστολοι ἐκ τῶν Ἑβδομήντα
Saint Herodion was a relative of Saint Paul the Apostle who greeted him near the end of his epistle to the Romans (Romans 16:11). A native of Jerusalem, Agabos was a prophet. When Paul and Barnabus were in Antioch, Agabos predicted under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit that a great famine would come upon the whole land of Judea. This great famine took place under Claudius about 45-48. In Caesarea, Agabos predicted to the Apostle Paul that captivity and prisoner's chains awaited him in Jerusalem. Rufus was the son of Simon the Cyrenian, whom the Apostle greets, as well as Asyncritos, Phlegon, and Hermes, toward the end of his epistle to the Romans (Romans 16:13-14).
他们是70圣徒之一。帕弗罗在他的《使徒书》中提到了他们。希罗天是帕弗罗的亲属帕弗罗在写给罗马人的信中说:抻治饰仪资粝B尢彀厕(罗马书16:11)。作为新巴底亚的主教,希罗天遭受了犹太人的迫害。他们用棍子抽打他的头,用石头击打他的嘴,并用刀子刺他。他们离开了奄奄一息的希罗天之后,希罗天竟然站起来,继续返回到使徒身边工作。在罗马,希罗天帮助圣徒裴特若的工作,并在圣裴特若被钉在十字架这一天同其他众基督徒同遭斩首。圣亚迦布拥有预言的恩典。他所作的两个预言在《徒/宗》中曾有记载。他首先预言了在全地将会出现大饥荒,在革老丢在位期间,这个预言应验了:“内中有一位,名叫亚迦布,站起来,借着圣灵指明天下将有大饥荒;这事到革老丢年间果然有了。”(使徒行实/徒/宗11:28)。另一个预言就是,他在该撒利亚遇见帕弗罗,当时帕弗罗正前往耶路撒冷,途径该撒利亚,亚迦布拿帕弗罗的腰带捆上自己的手脚说:“圣灵说:犹太人在耶路撒冷,要如此捆绑这腰带的主人,把他交在外邦人手里”(使徒行实/徒/宗21:11)。圣鲁孚是希腊底比斯的主教,圣帕弗罗在书信中也提到过他:“又问在主蒙拣选的鲁孚和他母亲安”(罗马书16:13)。亚逊其土是亚洲海卡尼亚的主教,在《罗马书》16:14中有记载,同时,弗勒干也在同一章节中被提到:“又问亚逊其土、弗勒干、黑米、八罗巴、黑马,并与他们在一处的弟兄们安。”(罗马书16:14)。弗勒干是色雷斯的马拉顿城的主教。圣黑马也同其他人被提到,他是达尔马蒂亚的主教。所有这些圣徒如同蜜蜂一样为基督服务,他们将福音的甜蜜带到了不同的地区,为了基督的爱忍受了艰难困苦。所有这些圣徒都进入了基督永生的国度。

• New Martyr JOHN 约翰 Naukliros 纳弗克利若 ("the Skipper", Voyager, Navigator) in Thessaly (1669) burned alive on Kos
Ιωάννης ο Ναύκληρος
Ὁ Ἅγιος Ἰωάννης ὁ Νεομάρτυρας ὁ ναύκληρος
An Orthodox Christian during the seventeenth century who was martyred by Muslim Turks after he rejected their subjecting him to Islamic conversion rites while he was unconscious. His feast day is April 8. The martyr John suffered a psychological sickness. One time, when he was found in an unconscious state, some Turks performed over him the rite of conversion to their religion. After he came to his senses he saw the seal of circumcision and a white turban on his head. He agonized over the evil that had befallen him and angrily tore the symbol of Islam from his head. He repented with tears before God, bitterly bewailing the indignity that had occurred, and continued to live as a Christian. Once the Turks observed how he had recanted and again resumed his life as a Christian, they furiously rushed at John and savagely beat him, then threw him into prison as being an apostate. Neither lectures, beatings, nor threats bent his will, as John repeatedly asserted: "I believe with all my soul and heart in my Lord Jesus Christ and I confess him as true God Who will judge all the world, both the living and the dead. I despise that religion of yours, and am prepared to endure whatever tortures you subject me to for the love of Christ." When they heard these words and perceived the staunchness of his opinion, they angrily seized John, buffeting and shoving him about on the way to the judge. Once there, they testified how John had become a Moslem and now had changed his mind. The judge gave the order and they beat him unmercifully. As they realized that even with a flogging he was not in the least dispirited, he passed down the final sentence - burning at the stake. Therefore, after suffering many torments they burned the martyr alive on the island of Kôs on April 8, 1669. Thus he completed his life, receiving joyfully the martyr's crown and being made worthy of the Kingdom of Heaven.

• Martyr PAUSILIPPUS 帕弗西利普 of Heraclea in Thrace (117-138)
Ὁ Ἅγιος Παυσίλυπος ὁ Μάρτυρας
• PERPETUUS (490) Bishop of Tours in France (c 460-490)
Ὁ Ἅγιος Περπέτουος
Saint Perpetuus was the eighth Bishop of Tours, who governed that see for more than thirty years, from 461 to 494. During all that time he labored by zealous sermons, many synods and wholesome regulations, to lead souls to virtue. Saint Perpetuus had great veneration for the Saints and respect for their relics; he adorned their shrines and enriched their churches. As there was a continual succession of miracles at the tomb of Saint Martin, Perpetuus, finding the church built by Saint Bricius too small for the concourse of people coming there, directed its enlargement. When the building was finished, the good bishop solemnized the dedication of this large new church, which a writer of that time said was one of the marvels of the world and worthy to be compared with the temple of Solomon. The translation of the body of Saint Martin was carried out on the 4th of July in 491. It is believed that either Saint Martin or his Angel assisted on this occasion, for the coffin was so heavy that no means were found to move it, until an unknown elderly gentleman came forward and offered his aid, immediately efficacious. Saint Perpetuus had made and signed his last will, which is still extant, on the 1st of March, 475, a number of years before his death. In this testament of love, he remited all debts owing to him; and having bequeathed to his church his library and several farms, and establishing a fund for the maintenance of lamps and the purchase of sacred vessels, he declared the poor his heirs for all the rest. He added exhortations to concord and piety, and begged a remembrance in prayer. His ancient epitaph equals him to the great Saint Martin. He died on the 8th of April, 494.

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.
愿上帝怜恤我罪人
O Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God,
for the sake of the prayers
of Thy most pure Mother,
our holy and God-bearing fathers and all the saints, have mercy on us.
Amen.
