'''Agabus''' (Saint Agabus in [[Catholic]] and [[Eastern Orthodox|Orthodox]] Traditions) is mentioned as being a [[prophet]] in the [[New Testament]].  Agabus came up from [[Jerusalem]] to [[Antioch]] and predicted a [[famine]] which came to pass during the reign of [[Claudius]] (Acts 11:27-28). He is mentioned again coming from [[Judea]] to [[Caesarea]] years later and prophesying to [[Paul]] that if he went to Jerusalem, he would be arrested and bound (Acts 21:10-12).  This event also came to pass.  No further record of Agabus is found in the Bible.  Tradition records that he was [[martyr|martyred]] at Antioch.
