Greek-orthodox patriarch of Jerusalem
Gerasimus I (1839-1897) was Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Antioch (1886-1891) and Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem from March 11, 1891, to February 21, 1897. It was during his administration as Patriarch of Jerusalem that the full significance of the mosaic map found on the church floor in Madaba was understood. In 1885, Gerasimus was the Bishop of Scythopolis, a city just south of the Sea of Galilee. He was occupied with defending the Orthodox faithful in the towns of Husn and Karak from missionaries when, on June 19, 1885, he learned that he had been elected to the see of Antioch. On January 27, 1890, the patriarch of Jerusalem, Nikodemus, resigned and Patriarch Gerasimus was elected his successor as Patriarch of Jerusalem.
