Mehmed gave Gennadius both ecclesiastical and political authority, and as a result, under Gennadius, the Greek Orthodox Church became a civil as well as a religious entity.
While holding the episcopal office Gennadius drew up, apparently for the use of Mehmed, a confession or exposition of the Christian faith, which was translated into Turkish by Ahmed, judge of Beroea (and first printed by A. Brassicanus at Vienna in 1530).

Following the example of Byzantine Emperors, the Sultan handed to the new Patriarch Gennadius Scholarius-who had been elected on his recommendation-a precious pastoral staff and pectoral cross and permitted him to use as patriarchal church the second in size and importance church of the Holy Apostles.
A short time after his installation, Gennadius realized that the district in which the magnificent church stood was not the right place where the Patriarchate could continue to exist in peace.
Gennadius, therefore, asked permission of the Sultan to move to the convent of St. Mary Pammakaristos.

 GENNADIUS LIBRARY: Introduction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The Gennadius Library, a treasure house of books, archives, and works of art documenting the heritage of Hellenism since the end of antiquity, is housed in a stately marble building on the slopes of Mount Lycabettus.
It was named "Gennadeion" in pious memory of the founder's father, George Gennadius (1786-1854) but it is equally a memorial to the founder himself, Joannes Gennadius (1844-1932), for the library that he created is a fitting symbol of his whole career.
The new acquisitions are classified according to the original system devised by Joannes Gennadius with some minor changes and additions to the class numbers in order to encompass a large number of new books and more current subject divisions such as the children's books.

When Mehmed II took over Constantinople on May 29, 1453, he took the title Emperor of the Roman Empire and protector of Orthodox Christianity.
He let himself be crowned Emperor by the Patriarch of Constantinople Gennadius Scholarius, whom he protected and whose stature he elevated into leader of all the Eastern Orthodox Christians.
As emperor of the Romans he laid claim to all Roman territories, which at the time before the Fall of Constantinople, however, extended to little more than the city itself, plus some areas in Morea (Peloponnesos) and the Empire of Trebizond.

Gennadius and Cassiodorus[10] speak of him simply as Cassianus.
He probably died shortly afterwards, as the expression used by Gennadius in speaking of his work against Nestorius would seem to imply that it preceded his death by no long interval; for he says that with this he brought to a close his literary labours and his life in the reign of Theodosius and Valentinian.[88]
