Maronite Patriarchs of Antioch, From John Maron
A famous list of Maronite Patriarchs of Antioch was written and published by Giuseppe Simone Assemani,and Simon Awad, which follows the Series of Maronite Patriachs written by Patriach Estephan El Douaihy in the 17th century, but it is incomplete for the first centuries. Besides the Assemani's list, an other list more detailed was written in Bejjeh in 1766 by Georges Saad.
In the list here below the names shifted on the right are not included in the incomplete Assemani's list and derive from the Bejjeh's list.

“Like many another romance, the romance of the family turns sour when the money runs out. If we really cared about families, we would not let “born again” patriarchs send up moral abstractions as a smokescreen for the scandal of American family economics.”
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
““Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. Bribery and corruption are common. Children no longer obey their parents. . . . The end of the world is evidently approaching.” Sound familiar? It is, in fact, the lament of a scribe in one of the earliest inscriptions to be unearthed in Mesopotamia, where Western civilization was born.”
—C. John Sommerville (20th century)
