Eccl. v, 15) names as having at that time drawn away many from the Church by his novelties. [[Irenaeus]] wrote to him a letter On [[Schism]] ( Euseb. v, 20, 21). The appendix to Tertullian's De Prcescriptione adds to his article on the [[Montanists]] a statement that Blastus "wished secretly to introduce Judaism, saying that the [[Pasch]] must be kept only on the 14th of the month, according to the law of Moses." Pascianus, in the 4th century, speaks of him as a Greek, whom he believed to be one of the many authorities to whom the [[Cataphrygians]] (i.e. Montansists) appealed. See Gieseler, K. G. I. 1, 292 sq.; Massuet, Dis. de Iren. ii, 59; Schwegler, Montanismus, p. 242, 252. </p> | | <p> ( '''''Βλάστος''''' ), a man who was " chamberlain" ''(Cubicularius, '''''Ὁ''''' '''''Έπὶ''''' '''''Τοῦ''''' '''''Κοιτῶνος''''' ,'' i.e. chief eunuch) to King Herod Agrippa, or who had the charge of his bed-chamber ( Acts 12:20).
