| <p> (Heb. Abda', עְְבדָּא [a Chaldaizing form], ''the servant,'' i.e. of God), the name of two men. </p> <p> '''1.''' (Sept. Ἀβδά .) The father of Adoniram, which latter was an officer under Solomon ( 1 Kings 4:6). [[B.C.]] ante 995. </p> <p> '''2.''' (Sept. Ἀβδίας .) The son of [[Shammua]] and a Levite of the family of Jeduthun, resident in [[Jerusalem]] after the exile ( Nehemiah 11:17); elsewhere called [[Obadiah]] (See [[Obadiah]]) (q.v.), the son of [[Shemaiah]] ( 1 Chronicles 9:16). </p> <p> Abdas, a [[Persian]] bishop during the reign of Yezdegird (or Isdegerdes), King of Persia, under whom the [[Christians]] enjoyed the free exercise of their religion. Abdas, filled with ill-directed zeal, destroyed [[(A.D.]] 414) one of the temples of the fire-worshippers; and being ordered by the monarch to rebuild the temple, refused to do so, although warned that, if he persisted, the [[Christian]] temples would be destroyed. Yezdegird put the bishop to death, and ordered the total destruction of all the Christian churches in his dominions; upon which followed a bitter persecution of the Christians, which lasted thirty years, and was the occasion of war between [[Persia]] and the Roman empire. In the Romish and Greek Churches he is commemorated as a saint on May 16. See Socrat. Ch. Hist. 7:18; Neander, Ch. Hist. 2:110; Theod. Hist. Eccl. v. 39; Butler, Lives of Saints, May 16. </p>
