	Simeon of Jerusalem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Simeon of Jerusalem, son of Cleophas was the leader of the Christianized Jews at Jerusalem.
		Eusebius says he was appointed bishop by Peter, James (whom Eusebius identifies with James the Greater rather than James the Just who was in charge of the Christian community at Jerusalem), and John (II, i).
		Simeon was bishop at the time of the destruction of the Second Temple in AD 70 and may have gone with most of the Christians to Pella.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Jerusalem (A.D. 71-1099)
		A number of bishops of the Antiochene patriarchate wrote a letter to the Emperor Theodosius II in which they appear to have some doubts as to the regularity of their position since, as they say, they have "been ordained formerly by the most pious Juvenal" (Mansi, IV, 1402).
		The frontiers of this new patriarchate, as established by Chalcedon, are to the north the Lebanon, to the west the Mediterranean, to the south Sinai (Mount Sinai was certainly originally included in its boundaries), to the east Arabia and the desert.
		It was inevitable that the Christians of Jerusalem should try to help their fellow-countrymen to reconquer the land that had been Roman and Christian ; inevitable, too, that the Moslems should punish such attempts as high treason.

	Speech by The Rt. Rev. Riah Abu El-Assal Anglican Bishop in Jerusalem (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Zionism for the Jews becomes an ideal, and as Bishop Kenneth Cragg says: "Ideals everywhere are liable to ignore their impediments or overlook their obstacles." Indeed, Zionism often indulged the legend of a waiting vacancy and so darkly prejudiced fortunes of the existing occupants.
		The political history of Jerusalem and of the Holy Land is of continual change of the status among parties and rulers.
		For all its origin - Nazareth, Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Antioch and Carthage in Tunis, were all the cradles - the shift of power to Rome and Constantinople in ChristianityÂ’s formative years led to the notion that the faith was a Western invention.

	James the Just (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		James was the bishop of Jerusalem, the oldest of Jesus' half brothers and early recognized as the most prominent overseer of the Jerusalem Church.
		James the minister of the now reduced and impoverished church in Jerusalem, practiced the law in all its severity, rivalling the Essenes in asceticism; he ate no meat, drank no wine, had only one garment and never cut his hair or beard.
		James was certainly not a Judaizer, at the time of the Jerusalem Council he distinctly recognized the legitimacy of Gentile Christianity, and gave his approval to the work of Paul.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Saint Macarius
		The vigour of his opposition to the new heresy is shown by the abusive manner in which Arius speaks of him in his letter to Eusebius of Nicomedia (Theodoret, "H. He was present at the Council of Nicæa, and two conjectures as to the part he played there are worth mentioning.
		The seventh canon of the council–"As custom and ancient tradition show that the bishop of Ælia [Jerusalem] ought to be honoured, he shall have precedence; without prejudice, however, to the dignity which belongs to the Metropolis"–by its vagueness suggests that it was the result of a drawn battle.
		Athanasius, in his encyclical letter to the bishops of Egypt and Libya, places the name of Macarius (who had been long dead at that time) among those of bishops renowned for their orthodoxy.

		The prophecy of Jesus, concerning the approaching destruction of Jerusalem by Titus, is conceived in such high and swelling terms, that not only the modern interpreters, but the ancient likewise, have supposed, that our Lord interweaves into it a direct prediction of his second coming to judgment."
