Ignatius

Ἰγνάτιος τῆς ἐν Ἀντιοχείᾳ ἐκκλησίας ἐπίσκοπος, διωγμὸν κινήσαντος Τραϊανοῦ, θηριομαχῆσαι κελευσθεὶς εἰς Ῥώμην στέλλεται δέσμιος. πλέων δὲ καὶ ἐπιστὰς τῇ Σμύρνῃ ἐν ᾗ Πολύκαρπος ἀκροατὴς Ἰωάννου ἐπίσκοπος ἦν, ἔγραψε πρὸς Ἐφεσίους ἐπιστολὴν μίαν, ἄλλην πρὸς Μαγνησιανοὺς, τρίτην πρὸς Τραλλιανοὺς, τετάρτην πρὸς Ῥωμαίους. κᾀκεῖθεν ἐξιὼν, ἔγραψε Φιλαδελφεῦσι, καὶ Σμυρναίοις, καὶ ἰδικῶς πρὸς Πολύκαρπον, παρατιθέμενος αὐτῷ τὴν ἐν Ἀντιοχείᾳ ἐκκλησίαν, κτλ. Ἔπαθε δεκάτῳ ἔτει Τραϊανοῦ. Ignatius Antiochenae ecclesiae episcopus, persecutionem commovente Trajano, damnatus ad bestias, Romam vinctus mittitur. cumque navigans Smyrnam venisset, ubi Polycarpus, auditor Joannis, episcopus erat, scripsit unam epistolam ad Ephesios, alteram ad Magnesianos, tertiam ad Trallenses, quartam ad Romanos, et inde egrediens scripsit ad Philadelpheos, et ad Smyrnaeos; et proprie ad Polycarpum, commendans illi Antiochensem ecclesiam, etc. Passus est anno undecimo Trajani.   Hieronymus Stridonensis
