Rufus, Son of Simon of Cyrene

Rufus, Son of Simon of Cyrene, is identified in the Bible as the son of Simon of Cyrene. He is named in at least 1 verse across 1 book, Mark. In Mark 15:21, the passage calls Simon of Cyrene “the father of Alexander and Rufus” while describing Simon as a passer-by coming from the field whom they compel to take up the cross. The verse names Rufus in connection with his father, without further description of Rufus himself.
