John V
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature
Pope, a native of Syria, elevated to the papal dignity in May or July, 685, hardly ever left the bed during the short time of his insignificant pontificate. The authenticity of the letters assigned to him, and of the book De dignitate pallii, has been contested. He died Aug. 2, 686.
