Martyr
Sabbas
A martyr commemorated in the Greek synaxarion.
Life
Holy Martyr Sabbas Venethalon is unknown to the synaxarists and the Menaia. His memory is attested in a single old source, Sinai codex 631 (tenth to eleventh century), which places it on 25 August, alongside the deposition of the relics of the Apostle Bartholomew and the Apostle Titus. The calendar of the Church of Greece (new style) likewise commemorates him on 25 August, as a martyr. Saint.gr notes that the saint's existence, the details of his life and the day of his feast are not cross-checked by other sources, and nothing is said of his life or martyrdom.
