Jerome. Lives of Illustrious Men 77
77 Lucianus the presbyter PL 23, 685
Lucianus, a man of great talent, presbyter of the church at Antioch, was so diligent in the study of the Scriptures, that even now certain copies of the Scriptures bear the name of Lucian. Works of his, On faith, and short Epistles to various people are extant. He was put to death at Nicomedia for his confession of Christ in the persecution of Maximinus, and was buried at Helenopolis in Bithynia.
Lucianus, vir disertissimus, Antiochenae Ecclesiae presbyter, tantum in Scripturarum studio laboravit, ut usque nunc quaedam exemplaria Scripturarum Lucianea nuncupentur. Feruntur ejus de Fide libelli, et breves ad nonnullos epistolae. Passus est Nicomediae ob confessionem Christi, sub persecutione Maximini, sepultusque Helenopoli Bithyniae.
Λουκιανὸς, ἀνὴρ ἐλλογιμώτατος, τῆς κατὰ Ἀντιόχειαν Ἐκκλησίας πρεσβύτερος, τοσοῦτον ἐν τῇ ἀσκήσει τῶν γραφῶν κέκμηκεν, ὥστε ἅχρι τοῦ παρόντος τινὰ τῶν ἀντιγράφων κληθῆναι Λουκιάνεια. Φέρονται αὐτοῦ περὶ Πίστεως λόγοι, καὶ βραχύταται πρός τινας ἐπιστολαί. Ἀπέθανεν ἐν Νικομηδείᾳ ὐπὲρ τῆς Χριστοῦ ἐξομολογήσεως, ἐν τῷ διωγμῷ Μαξιμίνου, καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν Ἑλενοπόλει τῆς Βιθυνίας.
