THE HIEROMARTYR DOROTHEUS, BISHOP OF TYRE
Reflections and Daily Inspiration
“Who hated sin more than the saints? But they did not hate the sinners at the same time, nor condemn them, nor turn away from them. But they suffered with them, admonished them, comforted them. gave them remedies as sickly members, and did all they could to heal them.”

— St. Dorotheos of Gaza

SAINT OF THE DAY

 JUNE 18 / JUNE 5
The Hieromartyr Dorotheus, Bishop of Tyre (361)

Dorotheus was Bishop of Tyre from the time of Diocletian to the time of Julian the Apostate, under whom he was tortured and suffered for the Orthodox Faith. He lived on earth for 107 years and, pleasing God, took up his habitation in life eternal in the year 361. Dorotheus was a very educated man and wrote many instructive works in Greek and Latin. Especially well known is his Greek-Latin Syntagma .
