Hitherto undetected references in Martryium Polycarpi 15,2 to Ex 3,2–5 and Zech 2,9 suggest that the author of the martyrdom wanted to communicate to the reader that in the scene of Polycarp’s burning at the stake we are dealing with an image of theophanic meaning, analogous to the fiery theophanies in the Old Testament.
