Hippolytus of Samos

 

Pronunciation:  hih-PAHL-ih-tus [of] SAY-mohs

Occurrences:  3

First Reference:  Yeshua 26:12

 

And there went unto the Lord, Hippolytus of Samos, being foremost above all physicians which were in Caesarea, even he which tended unto Claudia Procula, which was Pilate’s wife.

 

 

See:  Arius, Caesarea, Claudia Procula

 

Summary:  Hippolytus is identified as the personal physician of Claudia Procula (Pilate’s wife), “being foremost above all physicians which were in Caesarea” (Y:26:12). Hippolytus was among a group of physicians who, upon hearing about the miraculous healing of the man Arius, requested that Arius take them to speak to the person responsible for his newfound health. Upon meeting Yeshua, Hippolytus questioned him hoping to glean some knowledge of his mysterious healing power. When pressed, Yeshua rebuked the physicians for their hypocrisy and corruption (Y:26:15-32).

 

According to scripture, the group of physicians included: Hippolytus of Samos, Polybius of Salinus, Ptolemy from Alexandria, and Basilides and Leondidas from Brundisium, Italy (Y:26:12-13).
