For whenever persons able preciso instruct the brethren are found, they are exhorted by the holy bishops puro preach preciso the people. Thus per Laranda, Euelpis by Neon; and in Iconium, Paulinus by Celsus; and in Synada, Theodorus by Atticus, our blessed brethren. “

He was honored con this manner while yet a young man, not only by his countrymen, but also by foreign bishops. But Demetrius sent for him by letter, and urged him through members and deacons of the church puro return sicuro Alexandria. So he returned and resumed his accustomed duties.

THERE flourished many learned men in the Church at that time, whose letters sicuro each other have been preserved and are easily accessible. They have been kept until our time per the library at Aelia, which was established by Alexander, who at that time presided over that church. We have been able puro gather from that library material for our present work.

And probably this has been done sopra other places unknown onesto us

Among these Beryllus has left us, besides letters and treatises, various elegant works. He was bishop of Bostra per Arabia. Likewise also Hippolytus, who presided over another church, has left writings. There has reached us also a conversation of Caius, a very learned man, which was held at Rome under Zephyrinus, with Proclus, who contended for the Phrygian heresy. Durante this he curbs the rashness and boldness of his opponents durante setting forth new Scriptures. He mentions only thirteen epistles of the holy apostle, not counting that esatto the Hebrews with the others. And messia our day there are some among the Romans who do not consider this verso rete informatica of the apostle.

He held the government but a year, and was succeeded by another Antoninus. During his first year the Roman bishop, Zephyrinus, having held his office for eighteen years, died, and Callistus received the episcopate. He continued for five years, and was succeeded by
