	Macedonius Of Syria Macedonius the Hermit, sometimes known as Macedonius Kritophagus, lived at the turn of the fourth to fifth century in Byzantine Syria. He is venerated as a saint in the Eastern Orthodox Church, with a feast day of January 24. Macedonius began his ascetic life as a pilgrim wandering from city to city in Syria, Phoenicia, and Cilicia, living entirely on barley moistened with water (hence ''Kritophagus'', "barley-eater"). Eventually he settled in the wilderness, far from human contact, taking shelter in a pit. He considered food a form of medicine that could be taken to stave off death because it is not lawful to "shorten one's life to shun labors and conflicts". Macedonius became well known to people far and wide for his holiness and gifts of healing and exorcism. Gradually, multitudes of people came to seek his direction and intercession. Only at a very advanced age did he agree to live in a cell provided for him. He died circa 420 at seventy years of age. See also * Christian mon ...

	Macedonius I Of Constantinople Macedonius I of Constantinople (Greek: Μακεδόνιος; died after 360) was a Greek bishop of Constantinople from 342 up to 346, and from 351 until 360. He inspired the establishment of the Pneumatomachi (also called Macedonians), a sect later declared heretical. Biography After bishop Alexander of Constantinople's death in 336, his orthodox followers supported Paul I of Constantinople. On the other hand, the Arians rallied round Macedonius I. The former was ordained bishop but did not hold his bishopric long. The Semi-Arian Roman emperor Constantius II came to Constantinople, convened a synod of Arian bishops, banished Paul I, and, to the disappointment of Macedonius I, translated Eusebius of Nicomedia to the vacant see. This was thought to have been in 338. Eusebius's death in 341 restarted hostilities between the partisans of Paul I and Macedonius I. Paul I returned, and was introduced into the Irene church of Constantinople; Arian bishops immediately ordained Mac ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Macedonius II Of Constantinople Macedonius II of Constantinople (Greek: Μακεδόνιος; died 517) was patriarch of Constantinople (496–511). Biography Within a year or two (the date is uncertain) he assembled a council, in which he confirmed in writing the acts of the Council of Chalcedon. In 507 Elias I of Jerusalem, patriarch of Jerusalem, who had been unwilling to sanction the deposition of Euphemius of Constantinople, united himself in communion with Macedonius. The emperor Anastasius I Dicorus employed all means to oblige Macedonius to declare against the Council of Chalcedon, but flattery and threats were alike unavailing. An assassin named Eucolus was even hired to take away his life. The patriarch avoided the blow and ordered a fixed amount of provisions to be given monthly to the criminal. The people of Constantinople were equally zealous for the council of Chalcedon, even, more than once, to the point of sedition. To prevent unfavourable consequences, Anastasius I ordered the prefect of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

	List Of Bishops And Patriarchs Of Aquileia This is a list of bishops and patriarchs of Aquileia in northeastern Italy. For the ecclesiastical history of the diocese, see Patriarchate of Aquileia. From 553 until 698 the archbishops renounced Papal authority as part of the Schism of the Three Chapters and when they returned to the Roman fold they maintained the title patriarch which was adopted during this schism. The Patriarchs gained the Countship of Friuli and the March of Carniola in 1077 and the March of Istria in 1209. The temporal authority of the patriarchate was lost on 7 July 1420 when its territories were secularized by Venice. The Patriarchate was dissolved in 1751 and its ecclesiastical authority divided between the Archbishop of Gorizia (Görz) and the Archbishop of Udine.
