Abdas
A martyr commemorated in the Greek synaxarion.
Life
Holy Martyr Abdas (also called Auda) died by the sword, apparently at the same time as the Great Martyr Procopius, around the year 303. The calendar of the Church of Greece commemorates him on 8 July (new style), together with Procopius the exorcist and Sabbas. The sources preserve no further detail.
