71 Malchion the presbyter PL 23, 681
Malchion, the highly gifted presbyter of the church at Antioch, who had most successfully taught rhetoric in the same city, held a discussion with Paul of Samosata, who as bishop of the church at Antioch, had introduced the doctrine of Artemon, and this was taken down by short hand writers. This dialogue is still extant, and yet another extended epistle written by him, in behalf of the council, is addressed to Dionysius and Maximus, bishops of Rome and Alexandria. He flourished under Claudius and Aurelianus.
913 Malchion, disertissimus Antiochenae Ecclesiae presbyter, quippe qui in eadem urbe rhetoricam florentissime docuerat, adversum Paulum Samosatenum, qui Antiochenae Ecclesiae episcopus dogma Artemonis instaurarat, excipientibus notariis disputavit; qui dialogus usque hodie exstat. Sed et alia grandis epistola, ex persona synodi, ab eo scripta ad Dionysium et Maximum Romanae et Alexandrinae Ecclesiae episcopos dirigitur. Floruit sub Claudio et Aureliano.
914 Μαλχίων, ἐλλογιμώτατος τῆς ἐν Ἀντιοχείᾳ Ἑκκλησίας πρεσβύτερος, καὶ ἐν τῇ αὐτῇ πόλει τὴν ῥητορικὴν ἐπισήμως διδάξας, κατὰ Παύλου τοῦ Σαμοσατέως, τοῦ ἐν τῇ Άντιοχείας Ἐκκλησίᾳ τὸ δόγμα Ἀρτέμωνος ἀνανεώσαντος, ἐκλαμβανόντων Νοταρίων διελέχθη, ὅστις διάλογος ἄχρι τῆς δεῦρο ὑπάρχει. Καὶ ἄλλη ἐπιστολὴ ἐκ προσώπου τῆς συνόδου παρ' αὐτοῦ γραφεῖσα, πρὸς Διονύσιον καὶ Μάξιμον Ῥώμης καὶ Ἀλεξανδρείας ἐπισκόπους, πέμπεται. Ἤνθησεν ἐπὶ Κλαυδίου καὶ Αὐρηλιανοῦ.
