Andronicus of Alexandria was a 6th-century presbyter who served as the 37th Pope of Alexandria and Patriarch of the See of St. Mark. Born into an influential and wealthy family, he was highly educated in holy scriptures and was noted for his charitable works. Although he never lived in a monastery, he was chosen as patriarch due to his righteousness and deep knowledge. He led his community in Alexandria during a period of significant turmoil, maintaining his religious convictions despite the presence of Melkite authority.
