Details

Zacharias of Mytilene (c. 465, Gaza - after 536), also known as Zacharias Scholasticus or Zacharias Rhetor, was a bishop and ecclesiastical historian.The life of Zacharias of Mytilene can be reconstructed only from a few scattered reports in contemporary sources (the accounts are also partly conflicting - for example, some Syrian authors have "Melitene" instead of "Mytilene"). Zacharias was born near Gaza, which hosted a significant school of rhetorics in Late Antiquity. That was also where he received his initial education. In 485, he travelled to Alexandria, where he studied philosophy for two years. In Alexandria, he was embroiled in a conflict between Christians and Pagans in connection with the Horapollo affair (see that article). It was also there he met Severus, who was later to become a notable patriarch of Antioch. Zacharias was baptized and travelled in 487 to Beirut to study law at the academy there. He stayed there, leading a very ascetic life, until 491, but he also made several journeys to different parts of Palestine in search for religious knowledge.
