Saint Macarius of Jerusalem was Bishop of Jerusalem from 312 to shortly before 335 according to Sozomen. St. Athanasius in one of his orations against Arianism refers to St. Macarius as an example of the honest and simple style of apostolical men. The date 312 for Macarius’s accession to the episcopate is found in St. Jerome’s version of Eusebius of Caesarea’s Chronicles; Tillement .
