He lived with his uncle who his father had left him in charge after leaving, he was a commander of an army in Turkey. He went to a monastery where he learned about the life of God and after spending several years as a monk decided to take a trip to Jerusalem.

His life was dedicated to prayer and penance, and that he also worked several hours a day so that what he earned was shared in food to the most needy.

He became Archbishop after accomplishing a mission that he set for himself, spending several years in the desert praying to the Lord. After that, he was in charge of 150 monks who came to San Sabas to be their guide to holiness.
