[[File:Papias.png|thumbnail|right|250px|Papias of Hierapolis]]
 
'''Saint Papias''' (60 - 130 A.D.) was [[Bishop]] of Hierapolis in Phrygia, [[Asia Minor]]. A man of the Apostolic era, and eyewitness of the Apostolic preaching, he is an important witness of various events closely connected with the transmission of the Gospels to the Church. He sought to collect together sayings attributed to [[Christ]] that were not recorded in the [[Gospels]].  According to [[Irenaeus]], he was a disciple of [[John the Apostle|John]] and a companion of [[Polycarp]].  He was the author of ''Logion Kyriakon Exegesus'' (Expositions of the words of the Lord) and his work was quoted by both Irenaeus and [[Eusebius]].  One of his claims he made in his writing was that [[John Mark|Mark]] was the interpreter of [[Saint Peter|Peter]] and that he set down accurately, but not in chronological order, all that he had been told of the words and actions of [[Jesus]].
