Description: (Bishop of Salamis)
Epiphanius of Salamis was a distinguished bishop in Cyprus during the late 4th century, revered as a saint and Church Father by both the Eastern Orthodox and Catholic Churches. He was recognized for his unwavering support of orthodoxy and his work on the Panarion, which exposed various heresies, including pagan religions and philosophical systems. Despite some disputes over quote authenticity, Epiphanius was notably against certain forms of religious imagery in the church, particularly critical of contemporary practices.
