Nestor

Saint Nestor is commemorated in the Greek calendar on 21 September (new style), together with Busiris and Priscus.

In the synaxarion his name and that of Busiris stand beside those of the brothers Eusebius, Nestabus and Zeno of Gaza, martyrs of the time of Julian the Apostate (360-363): seized by the pagans, dragged through the streets and tortured in many ways, their heads were crushed with stones and they were burned in a furnace. Of Nestor and Busiris no more is said than the names; the sources consulted contain no other details.
