Anuph (Anub, Or Nob), St.

was a monk of Scetis in the 4th century, and brother of St. Pcemen. When the monasteries there were devastated by the Mazici, a Moorish tribe, he retired with his brother to Terenuthi. So strong were his ascetic principles that it is said he refused to see his own mother.
