HIEROMARTYR CLEMENT, BISHOP OF ANCYRA, AND MARTYR AGATHANGELUS (296). VEN. MAUSIMAS THE SYRIAN (4TH C.). VEN. SALAMANES THE SILENT (CA. 400). ST. PAULINUS THE MERCIFUL, BISHOP OF NOLA (431). COMMEMORATION OF THE SIXTH ECUMENICAL COUNCIL (680-681)
• Synaxis of Panagia DAKRIROOUSA (i.o. tearing) in Kefallonia
The Monothelite Controversy
第六次普世大公会议（公元680年）
第六次普世大公会议第一次会议于公元681年上半年在君士坦丁堡举行，第二次会议于公元691年下半年举行。在这次会议上谴责了基督一志论异端邪说，该异端鼓吹基督只有上帝的意志，没有人的意志。除此之外，会议还通过了一些有关教士等级和戒律的教规。
Held in Constantinople in 680. Under Emperor Constantine IV Pogonatos. 170 Bishops were present. Defender of Orthodoxy: St Maximus the Confessor (580-662); St Andrew of Crete (740) participated in the deliberations of the Council; author of the famous "Canon" which is read during Great Lent. Council concerned the last attempt to compromise with the Monophysites. Although Christ did have two natures (divine and human) He nevertheless, acted as God only. In other words, His divine nature made all the decisions and His human nature only carried and acted them out. Hence, the name: "Monothelitism" ("mono" one and "thelesis" will). The Council's Pronouncement: "Christ had two natures with two activities: as God working miracles, rising from the dead and ascending into heaven; as Man, performing the ordinary acts of daily life. Each nature exercises its own free will. Christ's divine nature had a specific task to perform and so did His human nature. Each nature performed those tasks set forth without being confused, subjected to any change or working against each other. The two distinct natures and related to them activities were mystically united in the one Divine Person of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ."

The best known English translation of a work by Saint Ignatius Brianchaninov is that on the Jesus Prayer: “On the Prayer of Jesus”. This has gone through and remains available in many editions. The hierarch himself acknowledged: "The source of my writings is to be found in the Fathers; they belong to the Fathers of the Orthodox Church…"

Οἱ Ἅγιοι Κλήμης καὶ Ἀγαθάγγελος οἱ Μάρτυρες
殉道者克利密斯，安基拉的主教
克利密斯于公元258年出生于安基拉城，他的父亲是异教徒，母亲是一名基督徒。他虔诚的母亲欧福罗新预言她的儿子将成为殉道者。当克利密斯12岁那年母亲去世了。欧福罗新的朋友索菲亚将克利密斯领回家里，将其作为养子，在基督精神中将其抚养成人。克利密斯因其圣洁的生活而闻名，因此，在20岁的时候，他就被选举为安基拉的主教。虽然年纪轻轻，但是他却拥有成熟的智慧。他以极大的节制来驯服、战胜自己的身体。克利密斯只食面包和蔬菜，不吃任何经过屠宰的或带血的东西。在狄克雷蒂在位期间，他忍受了可怕的折磨，可堪称是“史无前例的”。他在艰苦的环境和地牢中渡过了28年，共有11名不同的迫害者对他施以折磨。有一次，当他们打他的脸，在他身上吐唾沫，打断了他的牙齿，他对施刑者德门蒂安喊道：“喂！德门蒂安，你太抬举我了，你这不是在拷打我，因为我主耶稣的嘴和脸也遭受过人的毒打，我这个不配之人现在却受到了同耶稣同样的待遇！”当克利密斯被带到罗马时，戴克里先皇帝在他面前一边摆放了各种刑具，另一边摆放了许多礼物，例如金饰（勋章）、衣服和钱，即皇帝所能赐的所有至宝，然后让克利密斯进行选择。这位基督的殉道者对皇帝的至宝投去轻蔑的一瞥，毅然选择了刑具。克利密斯遭受了难以形容的酷刑：他们一块一块地割掉他的身体上的肉，露出了白花花的骨头。最后，他在安基拉被一士兵斩首，当时，他正作为主教在教堂里主持事奉圣礼，时年为公元312年。圣克利密斯不断地创造着奇迹。
After Saint Clement miraculously survived torture, he was taken to Rome. While in prison there he met, converted, and baptized Saint Agathangelus, then ordained him deacon. He followed the bishop to the East, and both were martyred at Ancyra under Diocletian. After 28 years of suffering, Agathangelus was beheaded; but Clement was briefly paroled and allowed to celebrate the services of Theophany and to give the holy Communion to his fellow-Christians. A few days later, as he was again celebrating the Divine Liturgy, some pagan soldiers burst into the church and beheaded him at the altar.
• Holy 2 Martyrs of Parium, near Cyzicus and Lampsacus, in Asia Minor
Οἱ Ἅγιοι Δύο Μάρτυρες
• Sainted PAULINUS 帕弗利诺 the Merciful (also St Paulinus of Bordeaux or Paulino), a bishop in Nola (431) and his wife Blessed THERASIA (also Tharasia, Tarsicia or Theresia) (5th c.)
St Paulinus deserved to be called the Merciful, for in truth, he was compassionate in the full Christian sense of that word. Once, when the Vandals looted Nola, they seized many men into slavery. A certain widow whose only son the Vandal Prince Rig had taken into slavery, came to her bishop and, weeping, sought money from him to pay the ransom for her son. Not possessing anything, Bishop Paulinus dressed in the clothes of a simple man and asked the widow to take him before the prince and to exchange him for her son. The prince released the widow's son and took Paulinus with him to Africa where Paulinus served as the prince's gardener until, by God's Providence, he was freed and returned to Nola with the other slaves. Among his many virtues, his love for mankind and his compassion for the poor and needy deserve special mention. Saint Paulinus is known both as a builder of churches and as a Christian poet. There remains from him several hymns and writings, containing various moral discourses imbued with deep piety. As bishop of Nola, Paulinus is traditionally credited with the introduction of the use of bells in church services. One form of medieval handbell was known as the nola and medieval steeple bells were known as campanas from this supposed origin.

Asclas sent word that the governor would never be able to cross the river until he acknowledged Christ in writing. Arrian wrote out the statement, and was promptly able to leave the river bank. He crossed the Nile, and the moment he was on the other side, he ordered that Asclas be tortured and drowned.

Ὁ Ὅσιος Διονύσιος ὁ ἐν Ὀλύμπῳ
• DOSITHEUS of Gaza (530)
Born a rich pagan, Dositheus spent a wild and worldly youth. During a visit to Jerusalem he was so impressed by Christians, by an horrific image of the torments of hell, and by the message of a woman he saw in a vision, he converted, and became a monk at Gaza. He was placed under the direction of Saint Dorotheus the Younger, who had a long and steady struggle to teach Dositheus discipline, and take him from his worldly ways. Dositheus learned, changed, and became known for his gentle and supportive ways with the sick. When he became too ill to care for other sick people, he prayed that God would relieve him of his life, and soon after, he died quietly in his sleep. Died of a respiratory problem, possibly tuberculosis.

• EUSEBIUS 艾弗塞维 the recluse of Mt Coryphe, of Teleda Monastery in Syria, Abbot between Antioch and Berœa (4th c.)
Ὁ Ὅσιος Εὐσέβιος
Eusebius, a Syrian hermit, lived on Mount Coryphe near Antioch, where he ruled a community. He was a very eloquent homilist, and his life preached just as well. He himself ate only once every four days, but he would not allow his monks to fast for more than two days at a time. Although he advocated the benefits of penitential mortification of the senses, he more highly recommended perpetual prayer. He was harsh with himself. His mind wondered as he was listening to his abbatial predecessor read the Scriptures aloud. To punish himself for his inattention to the Word of God, he locked a heavy iron collar around his neck, which was connected by a stiff chain to an iron girdle around his wait. For the rest of his life (more than 40 years) he wore this contraption which prevented him from looking at his feet. Thereafter, he left his cell only to visit the chapel.
