Saint Andronicus (Greek: Ανδρόνικος) was a first century Christian mentioned by the Apostle Paul in Romans 16:7. According to that verse, Andronicus was a "kinsman" and "fellow prisoner" of St. Paul.
In Eastern Orthodox tradition, Andronicus was one of the Seventy Apostles. He was made bishop of Pannonia and died as a martyr. He and Saint Junia are commemorated in the Orthodox Church on May 17.
