Matthias of Jerusalem (died 120 AD) was a 2nd-century Christian saint and a Bishop of Jerusalem, whose episcopacy was about 113–120 AD.
Matthew was probably bishop for few years after Tobias until 120.[1][2] During his episcopacy, he dealt with a troubled political situation due to Roman persecution of Christians and a Jewish uprising.[3] According to Eusebius of Caesarea he was a Jewish Christian.[4] He was persecuted by Emperor Hadrian (117–138), but died peacefully about 120AD.[5]
