Orthodox liturgical observances and historical saint commemorations

The provided texts detail various dates and figures within the Orthodox liturgical calendar. On May 12, the Church commemorates Saint Epiphanius of Cyprus, who was born in 310 AD near Eleutheropolis, Palestine. Epiphanius became Bishop of Constantia in 367 AD, participated in the Second Ecumenical Council in 381 AD, and died at sea on May 12, 403 AD. Another text refers to the Sunday of the Samaritan Woman, observed on May 10, which celebrates the theological encounter between Christ and the Samaritan woman. Additionally, May 10 serves as a feast day for the Apostle Simon the Zealot, Saint Lawrence of Megara, and marks the translation of the relics of Saint Nicholas, Archbishop of Myra. While the texts present different dates and specific saints, they both reflect historical and theological traditions observed by the Orthodox Church. The texts emphasize the biographical details of these figures and the significance of the biblical events commemorated.
