Simon of Cyrene
"Father of the disciples Rufus and Alexander"
![Simon of Cyrene [Skin request from TrueParf] Minecraft Skin](https://stsimonsorder.files.wordpress.com/2017/10/stsimon.jpg)
Saint
Simon of Cyrene was a biblical figure that was compelled the Romans to carry the cross of
Jesus of Nazareth as Jesus was taken to his crucifixion, according to all three Synoptic Gospels.
Simon's act of carrying the cross for Jesus is the fifth or seventh of the Stations of the Cross.
Some interpret the passage as indicating that Simon was chosen because he may have shown sympathy with Jesus.
Others point out that the text itself says nothing, that he had no choice, and that there is no basis to consider the carrying of the cross an act of sympathetic generosity. Mark 15:21 identifies Simon as "the father of Alexander and Rufus". Tradition states that they became missionaries the inclusion of their names may suggest that they were of some standing in the Early Christian community at Rome. It has also been suggested that the Rufus mentioned by Paul in Romans 16:13 is the son of Simon of Cyrene. Some also link Simon himself with the "men of Cyrene" who preached the Gospel to the Greeks in Acts 11:20. On the other hand, Simon's name alone does not prove he was Jewish, and Alexander and Rufus were both common names and may have referred to others.
