Calendar for November 2 Holy Great Martyr Artemius

An Egyptian by birth, the first duke of Emperor Constantine the Great. He saw the victorious cross that informed the emperor and was baptized. He transferred the relics of Saint Andrew of Patras and Saint Luke of Thebes to Constantinople. When Julian the Apostate went against the Persians, he ordered Artemius, who was the imperial governor in Egypt, to come with an army to Antioch. There, the emperor put the priests Evgenius and Makarios to the torture, to which Saint Artemius objected and prophesied the emperor's imminent death. The enraged emperor threw Duke Artemius into torment. The Lord visited him in prison and healed him. Then they laid him on a stone, pressed him with another, large stone, and completely flattened his body. Then they also cut off his head. Saint Artemije suffered for the Lord in 363.

Holy righteous Artemius. Venerable Gerasim the New. Venerable New Martyr Ignatius.
