A 19th Century painted wooden Icon of Saint Antipas. In good overall condition and with just some minor losses commensurate with age.<\/p>\n
According to Eastern Orthodox traditions, according to the Commentary on the Apocalypse of Andreas of Caesarea, it is believed that Saint Antipas was the Antipas referred to in Revelation 2:13, as the verse says:
\n“I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan’s seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.”<\/p>\n
According to Christian tradition, John the Apostle ordained Antipas as bishop of Pergamon during the reign of the Roman emperor Nero.<\/p>\n
The traditional accounts go on to say Antipas was martyred during the reign of Nero (54-68) or Domitian, by burning in a brazen bull-shaped altar for casting out demons worshipped by the local population.<\/p>\n
There is a tradition of holy oil (“manna of the saints”) being secreted from the relics of Saint Antipas.<\/p>\n
Saint Antipas is invoked for relief from toothache, and diseases of the teeth. On the calendars of Eastern Christianity, the feast day of Antipas is April 11.<\/p>\n
