Matthias of Jerusalem was a 2nd-century Christian bishop who led the church in Jerusalem from approximately 113 to 120 AD. A Jewish Christian, he served as a presbyter and bishop during a period of significant instability. His leadership coincided with a Jewish uprising and intense Roman persecution of Christians. Despite the pressures exerted by the reign of Emperor Hadrian, he is recorded as having died peacefully in Jerusalem around 120 AD.
