Though the date he became [[bishop]] of Jerusalem is not known, Judas is said to have lived beyond the Bar Kokhba's revolt of 132 to 136. However, [[Marcus Mark II of Jerusalem|MarcusMark II]] was appointed bishop of Aelia Capitolina, the then name of Jerusalem, in 135 by the [[Metropolitan]] of Caesarea. {{start box}}{{succession|before=Joseph I|title=[[List of Patriarchs of Jerusalem|Bishop of Jerusalem]]|years=?-134|after=Mark II}}{{end box}}
