Pope and Patriarch of Alexandria for the Greek Orthodox Church (1657-1677). He went to Moscow following an invitation by Tsar Alexios (1645-1670), in order to participate in a Synod which condemned Patriarch Nikon I of Moscow for violating his duties. He secured significant financial assistance for the Patriarchate of Alexandria from the Tsar. In the year 1678 he resigned from the Patriarchal Throne because of old age.
