On Holy Thursday, a reading from an Easter homily by Saint Melito of Sardis, bishop.
Sardis was the capital of the Kingdom of Lydia (in modern-day Turkey), which continued as an important trade, administrative, and cultural center for over 2000 years.
Saint Melito of Sardis was a late second-century bishop of Sardis near Smyrna in western Anatolia, and who held a foremost place among the early Christian bishops in Asia due to his personal influence and literary works, most of which have been lost. His rediscovered theological treaties on Easter, “The Lord’s Passion“, verifies his reputation as a notable early Christian spokesperson.
