Amos al Ierusalimului

Amos al Ierusalimului a fost patriarh al Bisericii Ierusalimului între anii 594 și 601, urmând patriarhului Ioan al IV-lea, după trecerea acestuia la Domnul.

Se cunosc puține lucruri despre viața patriarhului Amos. He apparently found it difficult to exercise his authority as patriarch, particularly in his relations with the abbot of the New Lavra, as Pope Grigorie cel Mare found it necessary to write to Amos and Anastasius (Athanasius?) requesting that they suppress the secular life of the monks at the monastery that was next to the Nea Church. Pope Gregory also requested they reconcile their differences, which they apparently did.

Patr. Amos built a church dedicated to St. John north of the walls of Jerusalem.
