Life
Venerable Eleazar of Murom is remembered on 4 June among the ascetics of the Lake Onega region.
The calendar of the Orthodox Church of Finland remembers on 4 June the venerable Eleazar, Nazarius and Evmenius of Aunus (Olonets), saints of Karelia. According to a Russian calendar, Eleazar and Nazarius founded the monastery of Saint John the Forerunner on the island of Murma in Lake Onega; the manuscripts sometimes call them Greeks, which may make them disciples of Saint Lazarus of Murom, who came from Constantinople, but this remains a conjecture.
No further details of his life are kept in the sources consulted.
