Blessed '''Theophylactus of Ochrid''' (ca. 1050/60-ca. 1108) was one of the most famous Byzantine biblical scholars and exegete. He was born on the Greek island of Euboia, close to Athens, some time between 1050 and 1060. He pursued an education in Constantinople where he studied under the finest teachers of literature and rhetoric of his time and became one of the [[clergy]] of the Great Church there. He was appointed professor of rhetoric at the patriarchal academy and tutor to the emperor's children. As a relatively young man, he was consecrated as [[bishop]] and sent, against his will, to Ochrid, where he was the Metropolitan of the Church in Bulgaria for twenty-five years.
