Parmenas was one of the seven men chosen by the apostles to serve as deacons in the early church.
Parmenas was one of the seven men of good repute, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, appointed by the Jerusalem church to oversee the equitable distribution of daily provisions to the Hellenistic Jewish widows (Acts 6:5). His Greek name indicates Hellenistic Jewish background. After the Acts 6 narrative, Parmenas disappears from the New Testament record; early Christian tradition associates him with subsequent missionary work, but these accounts are not historically verifiable.
