Life
Saint Patermutius (Pa-Termuthes) was a martyr of the time of Diocletian's persecution. A layman, he was one of four Christians who led the liturgy for the persecuted Christians condemned to work in the quarries of Palestine. Learning of this, the emperor Galerius had him burned alive, together with the other leaders, Peleus, Nilus and Elias, and the Christians were dispersed to the mines of Cyprus and Lebanon.
Alban Butler says he was an Egyptian of great learning and reputation. It was to him that Eusebius and Saint Pamphilus addressed their Apology for Origen. He is commemorated on 19 September (new style), with his companions, and is venerated in the Roman Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church.
