A patriarch of Antioch about whom only very little is known, Euphrasius came to the episcopal throne in 521 and was in all likelihood a fierce persecutor of the miaphysites. He was killed in an earthquake that struck Antioch in 526, an end which for later miaphysite authors seemed fitting because of his deeds.
