Methodius of Olympus, St (d.
c.311), bishop in Lycia. Little is known of his life. He was apparently put to death in the
Diocletianic persecution. Only a small part of his extensive writing survives. The ‘Symposium [Banquet], or On Chastity’, also known as the ‘Banquet of the Ten Virgins’, extols virginity. In a treatise on the Resurrection, he took issue with
Origen and upheld the identity of the resurrection body with that worn in this life. His work on Free Will is a defence of human liberty against the fatalism of the
Gnostics. Feast day in the W., 18 Sept.; in the E., 20 June.
