Description
Also known as Nathanael, St. Bartholomew is traditionally held to have been one of the younger Apostles, and followed Christ with a simple, cheerful faith. After the Ascension, he ministered through Syria and Asia Minor alongside St. Philip, and was martyred in Armenia.
St. Bartholomew is commemorated on August 25, and his troparion sings the praise of his miraculous, healing relics, which “shine with the gifts of the Daystar of life and dispel the darkness of diseases from those who approach them with faith and hope.”
Like St. James Alphaeus, St. Bartholomew holds a sealed scroll in his icon. He points to the word he is holding in the same way that Mary points to the child Jesus in the Hodigitria icon: as our way to salvation.
This icon was painted by Fr. Theodore Koufos of blessed memory. Offered by permission.
