ܦܘܠܘܣ Pawlōs Paul, the bishop Paul of Edessa Pawlōs Paul l’évêque PAUL D'ÉDESSE http://syriaca.org/person/1405 255 339 male 418-435 Paul of Edessa was a bishop from the Italian peninsula who left his see and travelled to Edessa where, in disguise, he was hired into service as a household servant by John of Edessa, a priest. The two lived a life of prayer and spiritual companionship. They travelled to Sinai. Back in Edessa, they interacted with Matthew the eunuch, a woman hiding in a monastery. They travelled to Jerusalem. Paul performed miracles and fled to Nisibis. John found him there, and Paul told him to return to Edessa. Paul died, and John died 8 months later. The story was set in the time of the Bishop Rabbula.

Paul of Edessa is commemorated in Paul the bishop and John the priest (text).
