[[Image:Apostle Silas.jpg|frame|[[Apostle]] Silas]]The holy, glorious, all-laudable '''Apostle Silas''' is numbered among the [[Apostles#The_Seventy|Seventy Apostles]]. St. Silas went with Sts. [[Apostle Paul|Paul]] and [[Apostle Barnabas|Barnabas]] from Antioch to Jerusalem to settle the dispute among believers there about [[circumcision]]. Following this he went traveling with St. Paul through Asia and Macedonia and was eventually made [[Bishop]] of Corinth. He reposed peacefully in the Lord. The Church remembers St. Silas on [[July 30]] with Apostles [[Apostle Silvan|Silvanus]], [[Apostle Crescens|Crescens]], [[Apostle Epenetus|Epenetus]], and [[Apostle Andronicus|Andronicus]]; and on [[January 4]] with all the Apostles. ==Source==*St. [[Nikolai Velimirovic]], ''The [[Prologue of Ohrid]]'' ==External links==*[http://ocafs.oca.org/FeastSaintsViewer.asp?FSID=100039 Apostle Silas of the Seventy] ([[OCA]])*[http://goarch.org/en/chapel/saints.asp?contentid=147 Silas & Silvanos the Apostles of the 70] ([[GOARCH]])*[http://home.it.net.au/~jgrapsas/pages/St_Silas.htm Saints Silas, Silvanos, Apainetos and Crescens of the Seventy] ([[GOAA]])*[http://www.westsrbdio.org/prolog/my.html?month=July&day=30 The Holy Apostles Silas, Silvanus, Crescens, Epaenetus and Andronicus] (''Prologue of Ohrid'') [[Category:Biblical Saints|Silas]][[Category:Bishops|Silas]][[Category:Saints|Silas]][[Category:Seventy Apostles]] [[ro:Apostolul Sila]]LOL INTERNET
