Also Theodore of Antioch, a martyr. A priest in Antioch (in modem Turkey), he refused to adhere to the anti-imperial decrees of Emperor Julian the Apostate (r. 361-363) and was martyred by beheading. He supposedly prophesied that Emperor Julian would soon die painfully, which he did, while on campaign against the Persians.
