St. sacred martyr. Eleutherius and his mother Anthia and Eparch Corrivon and two executors of the execution Eleutherius, a Roman of noble origin, received a Christian upbringing from his mother Anthia, converted to Christianity by the Apostle Paul himself, and, adding to it a brilliant scientific education, from his youth devoted himself to serving God. At the age of fifteen he was ordained a deacon by Pope Anacletus (79–91), in the 18th year he received the rank of presbyter, and in the 20th year he was elevated to the rank of Bishop of Illyria and soon declared himself at the height of his election by the holiness of his life and the active spread and establishment of Christianity among his flock. The rumor about his successful activities in favor of the persecuted Christian teaching reached Rome, and Emperor Andrian summoned Eleutherius here and, after many tortures, ordered this confessor of Christ to be beheaded (about 120). Struck by the miracles that took place during the trial of Eleutherius, who was not touched by the wild animals released on him and who remained unharmed in the midst of the fire, Prefect Corrivon himself turned to Christ and, together with Eleutherius, suffered a martyr’s death. Eleutheria's mother, Anthia, also suffered, as she approached her dead son to give him the last kiss; she was also beheaded. Two commoners were also beheaded with the sword, who at first tormented Eleutherius, but during his torment they believed in Christ. The relics of the holy martyr. Eleutheria are currently in Rome, in the Church of the Martyr Sosanna. At the end of the 4th century, under Emperor Arcadia, a church was built in his name in Constantinople near Xirodothos (Dry Hill) (by Basil Patricius). – St. Joseph the hymn writer compiled in honor of St. martyr canon, the eighth song of which says that his cancer pours out rivers of healings and miracles 183. St. Paul, who labored in Latra A native of Eliae near Pergamon, after the death of his parents, he entered the monastery of Mount Latra (near Miletus) and labored there during the days of Emperor Constantine Porphyrogenitus. The glory of his holy life and virtues attracted many zealots of piety to him, and he was the founder of the famous monastery in subsequent times in the gorge of the same Latre mountain. Died on December 15, 950. Saint Stephen, Archbishop of Sourozh St. Stephen, a native of Cappadocia, came to Constantinople at the age of fifteen, during the reign of Emperor Theodosius, the third of this name (715-716), to complete his education in the sciences, and succeeded in external and sacred wisdom. Patriarch Germanus (714–730) fell in love with him and made him a cleric with him; but, seeking a silent life, Stefan secretly went to a monastery, from where he subsequently retired to a deserted place. When he died in Surozh (Sudak, Sugdaya), which is in Tauris, the bishop and citizens, who disagreed in the choice of a successor to him, gave this choice to the patriarch, then Herman dedicated Stefan for them (about 730). Stefan, having taken the archbishop's throne, turned out to be a worthy shepherd of the verbal flock of Christ, diligently taught the people and at the age of five converted all the Sourozh residents who did not know the truth to Christ. For in Surozh, which stood on the border, a large trading city, there lived then many pagans, Jews and Mohammedans. Meanwhile, Emperor Leo the Isaurian, who had already expelled (730) Patriarch Herman for opposing his orders regarding St. icons, followed the champions of Orthodoxy in remote provinces; Therefore, he summoned Stefan from Surozh and, unable to win him over to his side, ordered his courtiers to pull him by the hair and beard and sent him to prison with dishonor. Soon after this, Leo died (July 18, 741), leaving the throne to his son Constantine Copronymus. Copronymus was married to Irina, the daughter of the Khazar Khagan (king) in Vospor (Kerch), who, while still in her fatherland, learned to respect the saint of Sourozh. At her request, Copronymus freed Stephen and sent him to his see. Having spent quite some time on the throne and having seen his imminent death, Stefan appointed the cleric Philaret as his successor and peacefully gave up his spirit to God. † Memory of the Venerable Tryphon of Kola A native of the Novgorod possessions, the son of a priest, Tryphon 184, baptized Mitrofan 185, was called by the Lord to a special feat, to the feat of a preacher of the faith to the wild Lapps. Pious from a young age, he, in addition to loving to visit the church of God, read and sang there, at times retired into solitude to talk with his soul and the Lord. His father's title as a priest gave him the idea to devote himself to preaching about St. faith to the pagans; but he was called to this by the special will of God. Once, when he was praying in a secluded place, he heard a voice: “This is not your place, an uninhabited and thirsty land awaits you.” Obeying the heavenly calling, he went to the Kola court, on the river. Pechenga, to the wild Lapps. The country of the far north was formerly part of the Novgorod possessions, and then came under the great power. Prince of Russia 186. Russians at the beginning of the 16th century. were here only as temporary guests, came for fishing and animal hunting; fishing beckoned to St. To the nose of many. It’s not for nothing that they say to this day: “wherever fish go, St. It won’t escape the nose” 187. – But between the Lapps, for the Russians only in Kola there was a chapel, and there were no churches anywhere. A long and wide strip along the river. Pechenga was occupied by more nomadic than sedentary Lapps. This was a vast field for the activity of a preacher, full of zeal for the truth of Christ and for the salvation of people. Mitrofan established his first relations with the Lapps under the guise of trade. Then he spoke to them about their beliefs and about the one heavenly faith. The Lapps adored not only spirits, but even reptiles and night bats, and worshiped stones. The preacher of the Gospel told them that there is one true God, one Creator of earth and heaven, one Father of all tribes and peoples, one Savior of all the descendants of the first created man. He showed the children of nature how close the Heavenly Father is to them, sending them food and clothing, and how grossly erroneous is the adoration of idols and spirits, of which the first do not see or hear, and the others are nothing more than servants of God, rebellious or submissive, but the creation of the one Creator of the universe. - Difficult are the feats that the preacher of the Lapps had to perform. It is not easy to lead a mind dulled by the immobility of habits, hardened by the soot of superstitions and passions, onto the paths of light and truth. It is even more difficult to force the heart to break ties with habitual delusions, with acquired attachments, with old addictions. – And then again, the ardent friends of lies rebel against the preacher of truth, for whom serving error is a profitable trade - with it they live in contentment and enjoy fame, without it they are nothingness. The kebuns rebelled against Mitrofan, first with the proud hope of challenging him, then with furious anger, ready to kill and tear to pieces the invincible preacher of new thoughts and deeds. More than once they not only showered him with abuse, but beat him cruelly and pulled him by the hair. “Go away from here,” the kaboons told him, “otherwise an evil death awaits you”; more than once they intended to kill him; but the Lord kept His servant. The holy zealot for heavenly truth endured abuse and beatings with meekness, and when anger became fierce, he retired to the mountains, and then went out again to preach 188 . No matter how much bad there is in us, our soul was created by the Lord for truth, and our heart seeks eternal peace. And among the Lapps there were those who did not remain deaf to preach about the eternal truth and the eternal new. - When Mitrofan temporarily left the stubborn to the arbitrariness of their wild malice - remaining with their conscience, they began to see their guilt and the moral superiority of the Christian preacher; his love for them, his patience and kindness, his self-denial for the preached truth struck their hearts, and they began to sigh for peace, not found in their faith. When the preacher again appeared to the savages and some of them, agitated by blind anger, shouted - let's kill him, others said: he is not guilty of anything before us, on the contrary, he wishes us good; Why kill him? Thus, at first there were few who took to heart the words of the preacher of truth, then their number became more significant. Blazh. Mitrofan, for trade relations with which he began his relationship with the Lapps, had to know some Finnish language and, of course, he learned the spoken language of the savages from others who entered into trade relations with the Lapps. But the preacher of the faith had to know much more Finnish than the merchant. To help him, the Lord sent a zealous and capable figure, Hierodeacon Theodoret; this was in 1529, when the northern hermit had already spent more than 5 years “in the bitterest desert” 189. Theodoret had previously lived for 15 years on Solovetsky Island 190; there, with frequent relations with the Lapps, it was easy for the gifted Theodoret to learn the language of the Lapps. Therefore, it was not difficult for him to translate “some prayers from the Slavic language into the language of the Lapps” 191. And this was the most important service for the Pechenzha preacher. After the long labors and sorrows of the preacher, a significant number of Lapps living near the river. Pechengi. believed in the Lord Jesus. Blazh. Mitrofan did not baptize them because he was not invested with the priesthood and was not even a monk yet. He went to Novgorod to ask Archbishop Macarius for a charter to build a church. From Novgorod he brought with him carpenters, who, more for the Lord than for money, decided to go with him to a distant and wild country. When building the church, the blessed one carried logs and timber on his shoulders for three miles. – The built church remained unconsecrated for a long time: no priest was sent from Novgorod. - Mitrofan went to Kola, then still a sparsely populated place, and found hieromonk Elijah there, who consecrated the church, baptized the Lapps trained in the faith and tonsured the preacher himself into monasticism, with the name Tryphon. This was not before 1532. This is how it must be based on the life of Tryphon and the chronicle. The latter says that in the winter of Filippov post 7040 - 1531, “Laplanders arrived in Veliky Novgorod from the Murmansk (Norwegian Sea) from the river. Kola and Tutolomi (from r. Tulomi, connecting to the river. Kolya before flowing into the sea) and asked the sovereign Archbishop Macarius to give them antimensions and priests to consecrate the churches of God and enlighten them with St. baptism. The God-loving Archbishop Macarius sent priests and a deacon, and they consecrated the churches of the Annunciation of the Mother of God and St. Nicholas in the Fast of Philippi and they themselves were baptized in great numbers, even the Lapps behind the Holy Nose” 192. Blessed Tryphon, using the services of the Kola hieromonk to baptize the Pechenga Lapps, began to arrange at the mouth of the river. Pechengi monastery of the Holy Trinity. – Now he had two labors - the labor of spreading the Gospel and the labor of building the monastery. To continue the work of the Gospel preaching, it was necessary to travel. What did this mean in that country? The dwellings of the Lapps are scattered in swampy places, crossed by mountains and rocks; There are no villages or villages, but only secluded huts. – What was it like, not having met the willingness of hearts in one hut, to walk across the tundra and mountains to meet a similar reception in another hut? The ascetic of God worked patiently. When those who opened the depths of their souls to the Christian faith were found ready to devote their lives to serving the Lord, this made the work of the preacher of the faith easier. The Lapps, taught by Tryphon to living piety, with lively animation passed on the seeds of piety to others, and the whole wild region received a completely new look. Together, Tryphon’s monastery began to strengthen. “By the grace of God,” wrote a contemporary, blessed. Maxim the Greek, many people of other faiths converted to the Orthodox and pious Christian faith... Before that, they lived like animals in impenetrable deserts, in caves and crevices, having neither a church nor the necessary things for life; they ate animals, beasts, birds, sea fish, and whatever they caught, they traded... Orthodoxy spread to the Varangian city of Vargava, where a captain or prince lives. And here now, by the favor of the Father, the will of the Son and the action of the Holy Spirit, an honest monastery has been built and a large brotherhood of monks has gathered. This is 60 miles from that Varangian city, on the river. Pechenga, near the sea" 193. According to the life of Tryphon, the baptized Lapps fell in love with St. the belief that some brought the fruits of their trade - money - to the monastery, others gave lands, lakes and coastal lands. We can also see the latter from the royal charter, which records “the lands, waters, lands and industries that the newly baptized Lop gave to the house of the life-giving Trinity” 194 . In the deep north it is almost impossible to sow grain; it must be obtained from a warmer region. “The Pechenzhsky monastery stands in Ukraine, near the icy sea; there is no arable land near the monastery, the ground is rocky, the cold is great, the snow melts for a short time all summer,” as the Pechenzh monks wrote a century later than Tryphon 195. That's why blessed. Tryphon, who had a fatherly love for the monastery he had collected, more than once had to go to Novgorod to collect grain for his monastery. With this intention he was in Novgorod in 1551 196. The seedbed of piety and new faith, planted in a wild country, had to be protected by the protection of civil authority. Blazh. Tryphon did not take upon himself the title of abbot of his monastery; he gave the title of abbot to another; but he was the father, planter and trustee of his monastery. Therefore, he went to Moscow to the Tsar with an experienced monk. In Moscow, Tryphon’s former partner in the Lapland desert, now Archimandrite Theodoret, was useful to him; the latter at that time enjoyed the attention of the king, so he was soon sent on special assignments to the East. The friend of the desert and collaborator in the preaching of Lapland, of course, spoke to the boyars and clergy in Moscow about the zealous preacher Tryphon 197 . Tryphon and his companion presented the monastery’s request to the king when he and Tsarevich Theodore were going to the church. The good prince left the church to the chapel, as if on occasion, took off his outer clothing and, sending it to Tryphon, ordered him to say: “The prince, sending the clothes, wants his alms to warn the king; let the monk use it for church clothes.” – Upon returning from the church, the king consulted with the boyars about Tryphon’s request. It was not difficult to see, after a quick glance at the affairs of the blessed one. Tryphon that the Tsar’s words, which shortly before had been proposed to the cathedral, should not be applied to the preacher of the Lapps: “the elder will build a cell in the forest or cut down a church, but will go around the world with an icon to ask for construction, and ask the Tsar for land and rugs, and what he collects, he will drink” 198. The king endowed the blessed Tryphon with both church utensils and lands. The royal charter dated November 1, 1556 says: “at the request of the sons of my princes John and Theodore Ioannovich, we granted the Pechensky Monastery, which is near the cold sea, near the Murmansk border, the monastery of St. Trinity Abbot Guria with the brethren and whoever the abbot was with the brethren, in return for rugs, prayers and memorial services, money, due to their scarcity, for food in the patrimony, by the sea lips (bays) of Matotskaya, Litskaya and Urskaya, also by the lips of Pechenskaya, Pazrenskaya and Navdenskaya, in the sea with all fishing and sea sweepings, when from the sea will throw out a whale or a walrus or another animal, with the entire seashore and its islands, with rivers and streams, with arable lands and forests, with forest lakes and animal catches, with the Lapps, which are now or will be assigned to the Matotskaya and Pechenskaya lips, with all the lands of the bays and with the royal monetary fees and volost feeds, so that the monastery can settle in and eat. Our Novgorod and Dvinsk boyars, the people of the Ust-Kola volost, all seaside residents, Karelian children and Lapps and everyone else should not enter that homeland, the rivers, tones, fishing grounds and lands” 199. Blazh. Tryphon, returning to his monastery with royal gifts and letters, brought her joy and peace. It is now provided with fishing and other lands for its existence. – His first thing after thanking the Lord was to announce the royal charter to the local commanders and elders. It was necessary to bring joy to our newly baptized children. With funds brought from Moscow, blessed. Tryphon built for them at the mouth of the river. Paza (Paesa) Church of St. Boris and Gleb 200. Since 1557, there was a severe, prolonged famine throughout the northern region. For several years in a row, frost killed crops 201. This caused bliss. Tryphon for new, hard labors for the monastery. Taking with him several brothers, he walked around the Novgorod region from one settlement to another, asking for alms from the God-loving. Everything he received, he sent for the maintenance of the brethren. This is how he fed his spiritual children for 8 whole years. Having loved the Lord from a young age, having endured so much labor and sorrow for Him in his years of maturity, the monk was afraid of being unfaithful to Him in old age and continued to struggle for Him until his grave. “Once he bought hand millstones in Kola and put them on his shoulders to carry them to his monastery. The disciples asked him not to torment himself with such a burden. "Brethren! said the old man, a heavy burden lies on the descendants of Adam, from birth to death: why have fun? No! Tryphon! It is better to hang a stone around your neck than to tempt your brethren with idleness.” And 158 miles from Kola to the Pechensk monastery, a road that was either swampy or mountainous, he carried the millstone on himself; Moreover, with such work he ate little food. With such exploits the monk achieved great spiritual strength. One day a bear entered his cell, knocked over the kneading bowl and began to eat the dough. The monk, coming to the cell, said to the bear: “Jesus Christ, the Son of God, my God, commands you to leave the cell and stand still.” The bear came out and stood at the feet of the monk. Taking a stick, the monk punished the guilty bear and, saying that he should not dare to disturb the monastery in the future, released him. Since that time, adds the monk of the monastery, bears have never harmed either deer or other animals of the monastery. In the last years of his life, the monk often retired to the desert, where, having built a church to the Dormition of the Mother of God, he spent time in solitary prayer 202. Before the death of his blessed. Tryphon was seriously ill. Finally, close to death, he said to the brethren: “I command you, bury me at the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in the hermitage, where I went to remain silent.” He reached a very old age if he died in 1583; then he lived in Pechenga for almost 60 years 203. “He was not very tall, but strong, somewhat hunched over and bald, with a long, gray beard. This is what they say about him based on his surviving ancient icon and visions! After his death, Tsar Theodore Ivanovich besieged a strong city in the Livonian country. The besieged Germans, at dawn, aimed their cannons at the king's tent, while the king was still sleeping. A splendid old man in monastic clothes appeared to him and said: “Get up, sir, and leave the tent, otherwise you will be killed.” - Who are you? asked the king. The one who appeared answered: “I am that Tryphon to whom you gave your clothes, so that your alms would precede others - the Lord my God sent me to you.” The awakened king barely had time to leave the tent when a cannonball from the city hit the king’s bed. The pious Theodore thanked the Lord for his wonderful salvation. He sent to the Pechenga monastery to find the blessed one. Tryphon, but received an answer about his death. The king then showed mercy to the monastery. The “legend” does not define either the year or the city when and where the wondrous event happened to the king. But without a doubt it was near Narva, in February 1590. Tsar Theodore was here with an army; The Swedes stubbornly defended Narva, but it was taken 204. At the same time (1590) the Swedes in the north devastated the Russian settlements. A week before the Feast of the Nativity of Christ, the “legend” says, they burned the Church of the Dormition of the Virgin Mary, where the relics of the saint rested in secret. Here they tortured the righteous monk Jonah. “Then they disappeared into an ambush.” On the very holiday, during the liturgy, they burst into the monastery of the Holy Trinity and, with brutal cruelty, began to kill the monks and novices; some were cut in half, others had their arms and legs cut off. Others were dissected lengthwise - Hegumen Guria and the hierodeacons were tortured in various ways, stabbed with weapons, burned on fire, asking them where the monastery treasury was. – The sufferers did not tell them about the treasury, and the enraged Swedes chopped them into pieces. Having robbed what they could find, they set fire to the churches and all the buildings of the monastery. – All 51 monks were killed in the monastery; novices and workers - up to 65 people; Only those who were not in the monastery remained intact. After that, by the will of the c. Theodore monastery, for safety, was founded in the city of Kola near the Annunciation Church. After the fire of 1619, it was built near the city across the river. Cola, but before 1675 twice and here the Swedes ruined him 205. The relics of the saint remain hidden at the place of their burial, in the Pechenzhsky Lopar churchyard, in the Sretenskaya Church, assigned to the Kola Cathedral. The monks, having moved to Kola, maintained the following rule: if any of the hieromonks happened to be near the former site of the monastery, he certainly sang a requiem service over the tomb of the blessed founder of the monastery. – Hieromonk Jonah, while here, not only did not fulfill the regulations, but also sat on the grave of Elder Jonah, who was tortured by the Swedes. When he drove several miles from the place of rest of the blessed one. Tryphon, suddenly the entire half of his body was struck by paralysis. Having deeply felt his sins and confessed them to the brethren, he began to beg the monk to forgive him. – On the fourth night, two holy men appeared to him, one in monastic clothing, the other in priestly clothing. The latter said: “My boss and father, Saint Tryphon! touch the sick so that he will be healthy.” “You, Father Jonah, are honored with the rank of presbyter,” answered Tryphon, he sat on your tomb: you must heal.” No, Jonah objected, you are the leader in this country and my teacher, and I am only a student. The monk said: “If you call me a teacher, you must fulfill my will.” “Then Jonah made the sign of the cross over the affected parts of the patient and said: “In the name of the Holy Trinity, with the prayers of St. Tryphon, be healthy and do not violate the limits set by your fathers.” – The sick man woke up, felt healthy and saw a ray of light following the departing saints. Oh blessed. Jonah has a tradition that he was a priest of the Church of St. Nicholas in the city of Kolya and in the world was called John. The loss of his beloved child struck him so much that he went to the monastery of blessedness. Tryphon and became his student; He had such love for his teacher that after his death he settled at the skete church of the Assumption of the Mother of God in order to perform the liturgy every day for the peace of the deceased. Here, martyred by the Swedes, he was laid near his teacher. St. Joasaph, blind from a severe headache, appeared to Monk Joasaph. Tryphon and, touching his eyes, said: “In the name of the Holy Trinity, be healthy and receive your sight, but remain a monk according to your vow.” “I was healed and received my sight by the appearance of St. our father Tryphon! He who had received his sight shouted in delight, and the monks who gathered at his voice glorified the Lord. More than once Rev. Tryphon appeared during a storm at sea and saved those who were dying 206. This is the reverend. Tryphon, by the grace of the Holy Trinity! “Monthly. Vost.”, archim. Serg., vol. II, part 2, p. 389. Life of Rev. Tryphon, now known, was written after “St. The Trinity and the righteous monastery from the Germans was devastated and burned - the life of the saint, written by self-videos, perished... Some kept it in small books and in short writings.” The writer says: “They decided to write the service and life of the saint into one book.” Track. this was not before 1655; the life is stitched together from several stories and by an inexperienced hand.

Pechengi, called Mitrofan. “In memory, Mitrofan be his name.” When Theodorit arrived to the Pechenga preacher, the latter was not yet Tryphon.

Their clothes are made from animal skins. They bring their goods to Riga: dry fish, animal skins, etc. Thanks to their magic, they sail safely on the sea” (Adelunga, Travels of Foreigners in Russia, p. 282. M. 1863). For the fame of magic enjoyed by the Finns and Lapps, see De fama magiae Fennis attributa a Porthan, Aboae 1780. Kurbsky ist. John. In Kurbsky's news about Theodorit, one must keep in mind two specific time limits and according to them, Kurbsky's not entirely accurate testimony about Theodorit should be placed. This is 1554, when Theodorit was answerable for Artemy, and 1526, when he came to the desert to Porfiry, who was the abbot of the Sergius Lavra until Oct. 1525 According to Kurbsky, Theodoret stayed with Porfiry for 4 years, on the river. Kolya is about 20 years old, two years in Novgorod, 2 years in the Novgorod monastery, 4 years in Suzdal (Ist. John, pp. 130. 131. 133). Thus: a) according to this account, Theodoret lived 30 years before his imprisonment in the Cyril Monastery; and from 1526 to 1554 it turns out to be 28 years. b) 20 years of Kola’s life, obviously, include not only the time of Theodorit’s stay on Kola and the founding of a monastery there, but also Theodorit’s life with Mitrofan; by separating a larger number of years for life in Kola, no more than 5 years will remain for staying with Mitrofan and, moreover, for staying at different times, c) According to Kurbsky’s account, it would be necessary to assume that Theodorit went to Novgorod in 1551, and he was in Moscow this year.

Tryphon, as can be seen from his review, did not clearly separate the activities of Theodoret, who embraced the environs of Kola, from the activities of Tryphon, who labored in Pechenga. And others, indiscriminately including Kurbsky’s stories about Theodorite into the legend of Tryphon, cast complete darkness on Tryphon’s life. – Theodoret went to the east in 1557. at Karamz.
