* Jove (1589-1605) (Job?)
* Ignatius (1605-1606)
* St. Hermogenus (1606-1612) (Germogen?) (The beginning of the 17th century proved to be a hard time for Russia. The Poles and Swedes invaded Russia from the west. The patriarch, an ardent patriot of Russia who was to be tortured to death by the invaders, was the spiritual leaders of the mass levy led by Minin and Pozharsky. The heroic defense of [[Holy Trinity-St. Sergius Lavra|St. Sergius' Monastery ]] of the Trinity from the Swedes and Poles between 1608-1610 is of note to both the Russian state and the Russian Church)
* Philaret (Fyodor N. Romanov - father of Tsar Michael I)(1619-1633)
* Joasaphus I (1634-1642)
