Simeon the Kinsman of the Lord

Feast · hierarch

  • 27 April (Eastern Orthodox Church)

Second bishop of Jerusalem, son of Clopas, and by Hegesippus a cousin of the Lord. Byzantium keeps him on 27 April. Wikidata carries a second day, 17 January, that no tradition could be attached to with confidence, so it is left standing rather than swallowed.

After The Typikon, ch. 48, the Menaion — 27 April, «Ст҃а́гѡ сщ҃енномч҃нка сѷмеѡ́на, сро́дника гдⷭ҇нѧ», p. 595.
