St. Agabus of Jerusalem is one of the prophetic figures mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles. Celebrated on February 13th in the Latin Church, he is remembered as the prophet who foretold the great famine during the reign of Emperor Claudius and later predicted the imprisonment of St. Paul in Jerusalem.

In this episode from The Lives of the Saints by Father Alban Butler, we examine the biblical account of St. Agabus, his role in the early Church, and the tradition that identifies him as one of the Seventy Disciples. The Greek tradition holds that he suffered martyrdom in Antioch, while later Latin martyrologies included him in the February 13th calendar.

Discover the powerful symbolism of his prophetic act in Caesarea, the historical development of his feast day, and the traditions that connect him to the Carmelite Order.

St. Agabus reminds us that God raises prophets in every age — men who speak truth, warn of trials, and strengthen the Church through faith and obedience.

🙏 Pray for the courage to accept God’s will, even in suffering.
