This hagiographical accounts is about the Arab saint, St. Anthony the Neomartyr, and recounts his transformation from a hostile observer of Christianity to a devoted believer. Initially, he mocks and harasses Christians, but after witnessing a miraculous event during a church service, he becomes intrigued by the Christian faith. Following a divine encounter with St. Theodore, he converts, is baptized, and faces persecution for his beliefs. Despite attempts to persuade him to renounce his faith, he remains steadfast and is ultimately martyred. His story emphasizes themes of faith, divine intervention, and the struggle against persecution.
