Elias I of Jerusalem
Patriarch of Jerusalem
Elias of Jerusalem (d. c. 518) was a bishop and Patriarch of Jerusalem from 494[1] until he was deposed by Byzantine Emperor Anastasius I in 516 for supporting the decrees of the Council of Chalcedon.[2] Elias was an Arab, by birth, who had been educated in a monastery in Egypt.[3] At the Synod of Sidon (512) he successfully defended, together with Flavian II of Antioch, the dyophysite Christological doctrine proclaimed by the Council of Chalcedon.[4]
