St Leontius the Patriarch of Jerusalem
Saint Leontius, Patriarch of Jerusalem, according to St
Gregory Palamas (Nov. 14), he was Patriarch from 1223-1261. His life was
similarly described by Theodore, a monk of Constantinople.
This
Life was translated from Greek into the Russian language in an abridged
form. It was translated a second time more fully by St Nicodemus of the
Holy Mountain (July 14), who says the death of the Patriarch actually
occured in 1175.
