John Chrysostom

John Chrysostom (; Koine Greek: Ἰωάννης ὁ Χρυσόστομος, romanized: Iōánnēs ho Chrysóstomos, IPA: [i.oˈannis o xryˈsostomos]; Latin: Ioannes Chrysostomus, Ecclesiastical Latin: [joˈannes kriˈzɔstomus]; Syriac: ܝܘܚܢܢ ܦܘܡܐ ܕܕܗܘܐ (Yōḥannan Pumā d-Dahbā); English: John the Golden-mouthed; c. 347 – 14 September 407) was a Church Father who served as Archbishop of Constantinople. He is known for his preaching and public speaking, particularly on the poor, his Divine Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom, and his ascetic sensibilities.

He is honored as a saint in the Catholic and Eastern churches, as well as in some others. The Eastern Orthodox, together with the Byzantine Catholics, hold him in special regard as one of the Three Holy Hierarchs (alongside Basil of Caesarea and Gregory of Nazianzus). Along with them and Athanasius of Alexandria he is also regarded by the Catholic Church as one of the four Great Greek Church Fathers.
