Notes
- The notation Old Style or (OS) is sometimes used to indicate a date in the Julian Calendar (which is used by churches on the "Old Calendar").
The notation New Style or (NS), indicates a date in the Revised Julian calendar (which is used by churches on the "New Calendar"). - MAGNIFICATION:
"We magnify you, Holy Passion-Bearer, Great-Martyr and Healer Panteleimon and we honour the worthy sufferings which you endured for Christ."
KONDAK, TONE 5:
"As an imitator of the Merciful One, you received the grace of healing from Him, O Passion-Bearer and martyr of Christ. Heal our spiritual diseases by your intercessions and always dispel the snares of the enemy, from them who with faith cry out: save us, O Lord!"[9] - "At Constantinople, blessed Anthusa, a virgin. Under Constantine Copronymus, after being scourged and banished, she rested in the Lord."[8]
- Three martyrs venerated in Bisceglia on the Adriatic in Italy. Maurus is said to have been born in Bethlehem, sent by the Apostle Peter to be the first Bishop of Bisceglia. They were martyred under Trajan.
- He began building San Vitale, where there is still a mosaic of him.
- Martyrs in Cordoba in Spain under the Caliph Abderrahman II. Aurelius and Felix, with their wives, Natalia and Liliosa, were Spaniards; but the deacon George was a monk from Palestine, who, though offered pardon as a foreigner, chose martyrdom for Christ with the others.
