was born at Lorhi, and occupied the patriarchal see of Armenia from 1071 to 1073. When Gregory II had abdicated, in order to retire to the Black Mountain, in the Taurus, George, who had been his secretary, was elected patriarch. Irritated because a great number of priests still addressed Gregory II as the true patriarch, he treated with great severity those who denied the regularity of his election. Being deposed in 1073, he retired to Tarsus, where he soon after ended his days. Gregory II took the place which George III had occupied for two years. See Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, s.v.
