<p> ( Galatians 2:11) was sometimes distinguished from Peter by early [[Christian]] writers, and said to be one of the seventy disciples by [[Clement]] of [[Alexandria]] ( Hypoypposes, ) as recorded by [[Eusebius]] (H. E. 1, 12). In the list of the seventy ascribed to Dorotheus, lie is specified as bishop of Cannia. In the menology of [[Basil]] he is commemorated on Dec. 9, but nothing is said of him in the Synaxarion there given. The Armenian calendar commemorates [[Apollos]] and [[Cephas]] as disciples of Paul, Sept. 25. Dr. Lightfoot ( Galatians, p. 128.) refers to the constitutions of the [[Egyptian]] [[Church]] as representing him as one of the twelve distinct from Peter. </p> | |||
