Palladius of Suedra
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature
or an ecclesiastical writer of whose personal history we know only that he flourished at Suedra, in Pamphylia. Prefixed to the Ancoratus of Epiphanius of Salamis, or Constantia, (See EPIPHANIUS), is a letter of Palladius to that father. It is headed Ε᾿πιστολὴ γραφεῖσα παρὰ Παλλαδίου τῆς αὐτῆς πόλεως Σουέδρων πολιτευομένου καὶ ἀποσταλεῖσα πρὸς τὸν αὐτὸν ἃγιον Ε᾿πιφάνιον αἰτήσαντος καὶ αὐτοῦ περὶ τῶν αὐτῶν - Palladii ejusden Suedrorunm urbis civis ad Sanctum Epiphanium Epistola, qua idem ab eo postulat — i.e., in which he seconds the request made by certain presbyters of Suedra (whose letter precedes that of Palladius) that Epiphanius would answer certain questions respecting the Trinity, of which the Ancoratus contains the solution. See Epiphanius, Opera, 2, 3 (ed. Petav. Paris, 1622, fol.); Fabricius, Bibl. Graec. 10:114.
