Isidore
A martyr, brother of the priest Pierius, commemorated with Saint Anectus.
Life
Holy Martyr Isidore was the brother of the priest Pierius and is commemorated in the Greek calendar on 27 June (new style), together with Saint Anectus.
The synaxaria recall Pierius, a priest of Antioch, who suffered by being burned on coals; some synaxaria commemorate him together with his brother Isidore. Anectus, remembered on the same day, was a Christian of Caesarea in Cappadocia, seized in the year 298 by the governor Urbanus; after many torments he was beheaded. About Isidore no further details are preserved in the sources consulted.
