Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem
Simeon II or Symeon II was the
Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem from the 1080s to 1099.
Patriarch
Simeon was appointed the
Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem in the 1080s.
[2]
Pope Urban II addressed a letter to him, urging him to acknowledge
papal primacy to achieve the union of the Roman Catholic and Greek Orthodox churches. The
Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople,
Nicholas III of Constantinople, warned Simeon against the accepting the Pope's offer, reminding him to the Orthodox views about Eucharist, primacy and the
Nicene Creed. Simeon wrote a commentary about the use of
unleavened bread in the
Eucharist in the Roman Catholic Church in defence of the Orthodox practise. After the
Artuqids forced him into exile, he settled in
Cyprus.
