The Latin term confessor is the equivalent of the Greek o`mologhth,j, which was initially used as a synonym of ma,rtuj; but from the 2nd c. on they were more clearly distinguished: a martyr would be one who died during his sufferings, and a confessor one who survived, not sealing his witness with martyrdom. We first see this distinction in the Letter on the Martyrs of Lyons of 177, where those who have survived the persecution do not accept the title of martyr but prefer to be called only confessor Euseb. HE V.2.2-3. Later evidence shows how this terminological specification was consolidated over time Tertull. Pud. XXII.3; Orig. Com in Ioh. II.34, 209-210; nevertheless, in some passages of Hippolytus, Tertullian and Cyprian, some still-living confessors are called martyrs. Cyprian makes a further distinction between public confession before pagan judges and private fleeing persecutors, an inferior degree De Lapsis 3. Once the persecutions ended, the meaning of the term confessor expanded to also include bishops who fought for the faith and ascetics who lived the faith radically, witnessing to Christ not in tortures but with their virtue.
