The holy, glorious, all-laudable Apostle Herodian (also Herodion or Rodion ) was numbered among the Seventy Apostles . He was a relative of the Apostle Paul ( Romans 16:11) and bishop of Neoparthia, where he suffered greatly at the hands of the Jews. After beating, stoning, and stabbing him, they left him for dead, but St. Herodian arose and continued to serve the Apostles.
He was beheaded with Olympas in Rome while they were serving the Apostle Peter on the same day that St. Peter was crucified. His feast days are celebrated on January 4 among the Seventy, April 8 , and November 10 .
Tropar
O holy apostle Herodian, entreat the Merciful God that He may grant the remission of sins to our souls.
Kondak
As a most bright star the church hath for ever acquired thee, O apostle Herodian, being enlightened with the grant of a multitude of thy miracles wherefore we call unto Christ: Save, O Greatly-merciful, those who in faith honour the memory of Thine apostle.
