| − | '''Pope Saint Julius I''', was [[pope]] from February 6, 337 to April 12, 352.

| − | He was a native of [[Rome]] and was chosen as successor of [[Pope Mark|Mark]] after the Roman see had been vacant for four months. He is chiefly known by the part he took in the [[Arianism|Arian]] controversy. After the followers of [[Eusebius of Nicomedia]], who was now the [[Patriarch of Constantinople]], had renewed their deposition of [[Athanasius of Alexandria|Athanasius as bishop of Alexandria]], at a synod held in [[Antioch]] in 341, they resolved to send delegates to [[Constans]], Emperor of the West, and also to Julius, setting forth the grounds on which they had proceeded. Julius, after expressing an opinion favourable to Athanasius, adroitly invited both parties to lay the case before a synod to be presided over by himself. This proposal, however, the Arian Eastern bishops declined to accept.

| − | On this second banishment from [[Alexandria]], Athanasius came to [[Rome]], and was recognised as a regular [[bishop]] by the [[synod]] presided over by Julius in 342. Julius sent a letter to the Eastern bishops that is an early instance of the claims of primacy for the bishop of Rome. Even if Athanasius and his companions were somewhat to blame, the letter runs, the Alexandrian Church should first have written to the pope. "Can you be ignorant," writes Julius, "that this is the custom, that we should be written to first, so that from here what is just may be defined" (Epistle of Julius to Antioch, c. xxii).

| − | It was through the influence of Julius that, at a later date, the [[council of Sardica]] in [[Illyria]] was held, which was attended only by seventy-six Eastern bishops, who speedily withdrew to [[Philippopolis]] and deposed Julius at the [[council of Philippopolis]], along with Athanasius and others. The three hundred Western bishops who remained, confirmed the previous decisions of the Roman synod; and by its 3rd, 4th, and 5th decrees relating to the rights of revision claimed by Julius, the council of Sardica perceptibly helped forward the pretensions of the [[Bishop of Rome]]. Julius died on April 12, 352 and was succeeded by [[pope Liberius|Liberius]].

| − | Julius is considered a saint in the [[Roman Catholic Church]], with his [[feast day]] on April 12.
