<p> a [[Christian]] philosopher of the Stoic sect, flourished in the 2d century. He is supposed to have been a native of Alexandria, and to have taught philosophy and religion there about A.D. 180. He went on a mission to Ethiopia, from whence he is said to have brought the [[Gospel]] of St. Matthew, written in [[Hebrew]] (Eusebiums, Hist. Eccles.v. 10). But little else is known of his personal history. With the persecutions under Septimius [[Severus]] all trace of [[Pantaenus]] is lost. He is reported to have died in 213. He left several commentaries, but only a few scanty remains of them are now extant. Some of them are collected in Halloix, Illustr. Eccles. Orient. Scriptor. (Douaci. 16331636); Routh, Reliq. Sacr. 1:398 sq. See Redepenning, Origenes, vol. i Guericke, De Schola Alexandr. vol. i; [[Philo]] Judseus, Opera, 4:34; Alzog, KirchenGesch. 1:194; Ritter, Gesch. der christl.
