Person
Melito of Sardis
later second century
Bishop of Sardis
Attested. Eusebius and the homily are the evidence. The homily survives in a later papyrus copy.
Melito wrote a paschal homily and, according to Eusebius, a list of the Hebrew scriptures he had verified in the East. The homily's Christology is strongly incarnational. He is a witness that Asian churches were already arguing about Easter's date.
