Theophylact of Bulgaria, Archbishop of Ohrid in the Byzantine province of Bulgaria (second half of the 11th - early 12th centuries), a major Byzantine theologian. Originally from o. Euboea, he served for a long time as a deacon at the Church of Hagia Sophia in Constantinople and as a rhetorician. There he succeeded in explaining the Holy Scriptures and composing instructive words on behalf of the patriarch. Having become Archbishop of the Bulgarian Church, Blessed Theophylact showed himself to be firm in faith and a wise shepherd.

Blessed Theophylact, revered as a saint by many Greek fathers, has rightfully been considered since ancient times to be the enlightener of the entire Orthodox Church. In his interpretations of the Holy Scriptures, Theophylact of Bulgaria follows the tradition of the fathers of the Antiochian school, especially St. John Chrysostom, whom he quotes several times.

In the books “Acts and Epistles of the Holy Apostles,” according to St. John Chrysostom, “one can see those predictions of Christ that are contained in the Gospels actually being fulfilled.” And also “In it one can find dogmas that would not be so clearly understood by anyone if it were not for this book.” The interpretation of the “Acts and Epistles of the Holy Apostles”, created by Blessed Theophylact of Bulgaria, contributes to our correct understanding of these fulfilled predictions and dogmas.
