The life of Saint Anatoly and the icon of the Nicene martyr, meaning and veneration


Life of the Holy Martyr Anatoly of Nicea

The story of the martyr begins in the city of Nicomedia, in Asia Minor. The father of the future saint, Philotheus, was a pagan and engaged in trade. He had three sons: Eustathius, Thespesius and Anatoly. One day, returning from a trip, Philotheus met a Christian preacher and accepted a new faith. And soon he baptized his entire family.

Christianity in those days was persecuted by the Roman authorities.

Therefore, Philotheus’s family secretly professed the true faith. The eldest son Eustathius accepted the rank of presbyter and served the Savior. After the death of their parents, the young people continued their father’s work: they successfully engaged in trade. Their wealth and piety made them the envy of some townspeople. Therefore, when one of the courtiers found out that the sons of Philotheus were Christians, he reported to Emperor Maximian.

The brothers were immediately brought to court. Eustathius foresaw that they would receive crowns of martyrdom and strengthened the spirit of Thespesius and Anatolius. When they appeared before the ruler of Rome, Maximian tried with flattery and promises to force them to bow to pagan idols. But the righteous unanimously refused. Then the emperor ordered to beat them with sticks. After a long beating, the martyrs were again asked whether they would do what was required. And again the tormentors heard a refusal.

Maximian ordered the righteous to be sent to prison and starved. When the order was carried out, an angel of the Lord appeared to the martyrs in the gloomy prison, nourishing them with heavenly manna and healing their wounds. He said that he would be with them until the very end and admonished them to the true faith. Soon the emperor wished to judge the prisoners. The guards found them healthy and sleeping peacefully. Seeing this, the ruler was amazed, but with threats he tried to force the brothers to renounce Christ. And again he failed.

Then Maximian ordered Eustathius, Thespesius and Anatolius to be devoured by wild animals. The martyrs were brought to the arena of the city circus, where the townspeople had already gathered, among whom were many Christians. Two lions and three bears were unleashed on the brothers. People in the stands were terrified by the ferocity of the predators. Eustathius read psalms and consoled his younger brothers. And the animals did not harm the sufferers, but, on the contrary, submitted to the hand of Eustathius. What they saw amazed the people. The pagans called the saints sorcerers, and the Christians glorified the Lord God.

The martyrs were again sent to prison, where an angel appeared to them. The heavenly messenger fed them and consoled them. At this time, the emperor's son fell ill, and the ruler ordered his military leader Anthony to deal with his brothers. Anthony took the Christians to Nicaea, where he again held a trial. Here Eustathius, Thespesius and Anatolius again renounced idols and were subjected to torture: their bodies were torn with iron claws. But again they held out.

Seeing the persistence and strength of faith of the sufferers, the torturer decided to execute them. On the eve of the massacre, an angel again appeared to the brothers and consoled them. After this, the Christians were taken out of the city and executed by beheading with a sword. They wanted to throw their remains to be devoured by animals, but two fellow believers turned out to be at the execution site. They carefully buried the remains of the martyrs.

Dates for celebrating Angel Anatoly Day in 2018

Name day is a holiday popularly called Angel Day. It is a day of veneration of the saint, whose name is given to a person during the baptismal rite. Thus, one of the saints is approached with a request for protection and support in life. If the appeal goes to the saint whose name is repeated several times in the calendar, then the day of the Angel is considered to be the one that is closest to the calendar.

Origin and meaning of the name

The name Anatoly came into our language from Greece. Translated, it means “east”. The Greeks gave this name to people from Anatolia, that is, the part of Asia Minor located to the east of them.

Characteristics of the owner and fate

As a child, Anatoly falls under the influence of his mother. A reserved boy, very often prone to shyness, but does not like noise and crowds.

He is very inquisitive, dreams of adventures, immersing himself in them with the help of fantasy and books, imagining himself in the place of the main character.

Over time, very impressionable and romantically inclined, Anatoly completely gets rid of his mother’s influence and, accordingly, no longer depends on him. Moreover, those romantic feelings remain with him until the end of his life.

When communicating with people, Anatoly is not particularly characterized by bright emotional outbursts. It is not difficult for him to find a common language with almost any person, while remaining completely calm.

The named Anatoly is not one of those who follows society’s lead in everything. He can go against everyone if critical situations arise.

At the same time, he often becomes completely uncontrollable, which creates many difficulties for his close circle of people.

Anatoly values ​​justice. It is not in his nature to offend someone rashly. Having become the head of a group of people, he will carefully monitor the relationships in the team, while not allowing himself or those around him to allow human dignity to be humiliated.

Drinking is taboo for Anatoly. Communication with alcoholic beverages cannot end well. Being drunk, Anatoly becomes rude, loses control of himself and often gets into trouble.

Anatoly, born in winter or autumn, is very active. In addition, they have many abilities that need to be constantly developed. For those who were born during the hot summer or gentle spring, their hearts will be filled with goodwill and kindness. Those named after Anatoly are ready to come to the aid of their neighbors, they are very fond of traveling and relaxing outside civilization, in communication with living nature.

Career and profession

Anatoly’s profession should be chosen according to his calm character and love of communication. The best options would be a politician, psychologist or teacher. The choice is most often made on the side of practicality. Living on one salary is not for him.

Additional part-time jobs are not uncommon for such a person. Hard work and perseverance will help you achieve success, but only in adulthood.

Since Anatoly is not very insightful and does not have business acumen, he should start his business together with an intelligent and reliable partner.

Family and love

Anatoly has no problems winning women's hearts. His prudence and balance help to win the trust of even obstinate beauties. Blonde girls are his ideal.

Young Anatoly is bored with beauties of his age, so he often builds his first love relationship with an older woman.

Before marriage, this person is a real temperamental macho who loves to achieve new affections.

Legal marriage is very important to him, so he chooses carefully. Everything is important to him: neatness, ability to cook, appearance and calm character. Having married once, Anatoly will strive with all his soul to live his whole life with the one who once won his heart. True, having lived for half a century, he may want to experience new sensations, but he will quickly return to his family.

The wife's parents receive their son-in-law very well. Anatoly can easily make friends with his father-in-law.

Family problems are not uncommon in Anatoly’s family. The wife of such a man, seeing his calm attitude towards everything, begins to take the reins of power in the house, trying to become a tough leader. She imposes her opinion on even small issues.

Warm relationships with children do not always develop.

A good worker, Anatoly is trying to create a high standard of living for his family, but his earnings are not enough for this. As a result, misunderstood and loaded with problems, he may leave the family to deal with them. This outcome is a rare scenario, since in most cases Anatoly is in no hurry to bind himself to obligations without having formed a material base.

Having truly fallen in love, Anatoly strives to fully provide the future family with everything necessary, and only then makes an offer. In a happy family, complete patriarchy reigns, Anatoly is the head, and his word is law.

This is precisely what becomes a stumbling block in the above situation: the wife should listen to her husband’s words. A wise woman will be able to get everything she needs from him.

At the same time, a mess in the house can make him irritated and unpleasant in communication, so this must be taken into account.

Scandals are not about him. And yet, everyone in the house obeys him. Anatoly honors traditions. He likes to spend holidays with his family. He remembers his parents and the test with his mother-in-law. True, Anatoly does not consider his relatives to be his own, which often becomes a point of contention.

The meaning of the name in Orthodoxy

It is believed that a saint named Anatoly lived during the time of St. George the Victorious. Emperor Diocletian appointed the great martyr a terrible execution. When he decided that George had died, everyone heard the Voice of God, telling him that He would not leave George. Anatoly and another courtier from the retinue found true Faith at that moment. According to legend, they were later beheaded.

Description of the icon of Anatoly of Nicaea

On the icon the righteous martyr is depicted as a beautiful young man in a scarlet robe. He is very young and clutches a cross in his hands, which testifies to the feat of martyrdom. The image embodies an image that is known from the life of the saint, compiled by Father Dmitry of Rostov.

Many sources indicate that it is important to distinguish between Anatoly of Nicaea and Anatoly of Nicomedia. Although the names are similar, these are different saints. Anatoly of Nicomedia was a grown man and a warrior. Its history is connected with St. George the Victorious. Therefore, you need to pay attention even to such subtleties.

The life of Saint Anatoly of Nicaea is an example of fidelity and holiness that should be remembered by all Orthodox Christians.
