Life
Saint Procopius the Persian is commemorated on 26 November (new style, the Greek calendar). He is unknown to the synaxaria and menaia, but from his service, preserved in the Parisian codex 259, folio 229a, it is learned that he rebuked the error of idols and suffered a martyr's death after many and varied tortures.
No other details of his life are preserved, and the source does not give place or time.
