| | Melkite Greek Catholic Church |
 | | The priests of the Melkite Church are allowed to marry. | | | The word comes from the Semitic word for king, pointing at that the Melkites took the position of the emperor (which is a powerful king) of Byzantine in the 5th century on the greatest division issue in early Christianity: the nature of Jesus. | | | The Melkite Church is affiliated to the Roman Catholic Church, through the regime of Eastern Rite Churches, allowing it a great deal of autonomy and the right to preserve its original character. |

| | From that point onwards, the Melkite Church was divided between the Orthodox, who continued to recognise the authority of the Patriarch of Constantinople, and the Catholics, who recognise the authority of the Pope of Rome. | | | The term Melkite (also written Melchite) is used to refer to various Christian churches and their members originating in the Middle East. | | | The Melkite Church was organised into three historic patriarchates — Alexandria, Antioch and Jerusalem — under the authority of the Patriarch of Constantinople. |

| | The Melkite Church |
| | The Melkites are Uniate Christians who acknowledge, firstly, the authority of the papacy and, secondly, the authority of the Melkite Catholic patriarch of Antioch and of All the East. | | | But in 1724 a Catholic Melkite Church was set up in Antioch to rival the Orthodox Melkite Church. | | | This Catholic Melkite Church suffered bloody persecution at the hands of the Ottoman Turks during the early decades of the nineteenth century. |

| | Melkite Church |
| | The word "Melkite" comes from the Syriac and Arabic words for "King," and was originally used to refer to those within the ancient Patriarchates of Alexandria, Antioch and Jerusalem who accepted the christological faith professed by the Byzantine Emperor after the Council of Chalcedon (451). | | | Today the Melkite bishops, including Patriarch Maximos IV, support the idea that, in the event of a reconciliation between the Orthodox and Catholic churches, their church should be reintegrated into the Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch. | | | At the Second Vatican Council, Melkite Patriarch Maximos IV Sayegh spoke forcefully against the latinization of the Eastern Catholic churches, and urged a greater receptivity to the eastern Christian traditions, especially in the area of ecclesiology. |

| | History |
| | The word Melkite was a nickname-given in the sixth and seventh century to the Christians who followed the decrees of the Ecumenical Councils, mainly the Council of Chalcedon convened in 451 A.D. which proclaimed the unity and distinctiveness of the divine and human natures in the person of Jesus Christ. | | | The opponents of the Council of Chalcedon nicknamed the followers of the Council "Melkites", from the Semitic root "Melko" (In Arabic: Malek) which means king. | | | This has been one distinctive trait of the Melkites: standing for unity and understanding among the churches and striving for universality. |

| | For example, an icon of St. Spiridon was given to a Romanian church in 1794 by Sylvester, the Orthodox patriarch of Antioch. | | | The Arabic icons are called Melkite icons because they were painted by Arab artisans of the "Greek" Catholic and 'Greek" Orthodox Churches; that is, Byzantine Melkite Christians (later separated into Orthodox and Catholics) of Arabic-speaking background. | | | Scholars are hoping that the study of Melkite icons will generate new insights into the lives of Arabic Christians. |

| | Melkite Christians expected relief from their sufferings when ten years later Pope Urban II proclaimed the First Crusade and thousands of European Knights set out to recapture the Holy Land from the Turks. | | | Today the Melkite Church in America stands as a living witness to the universality of the Church, to the truth that "in Christ there is no East or West." | | | Those who followed the true faith were called "malkaya" or "followers of the emperor." Unfortunately the Church of Antioch split into two factions: the Orthodox (Melkite) faction and the Jacobite faction which adhered to the idea that Jesus' nature was solely Divine. |

| | The Melkites, sometimes referred to as Greek Catholics, are Byzantine rite Catholics of Middle Eastern origin whose ancestors were originally part of the Church of Antioch. | | | Whereas the Melkite situation may be paralleled to that of mainline Protestantism in terms of ideological plausibility (Roof and McKinney, 1987) and Judaism in terms of ethnic assimilation (Heilman, 1990), Melkites' twin status as both an Eastern Uniate Church and as Arab Christians, makes them unique and worthy of separate study. | | | Missions are organized congregations of Melkites that have no resident priest and, in some cases, no Melkite-owned church facilities. |

| | Unlike the other oriental churches, Catholic or Orthodox, the Melkite Church is not a national church. | | | The Melkite Church owes its character as a particular church to two loyalties, one to the Empire of Byzantium and the other to the first seven ecumenical councils. | | | With the Arabo-lslamic conquest of the seventh century, the world of the Melkite patriarchates passed under non-Christian domination; Alexandria, Antioch and Jerusalem were part of the Islamic world up to and including the Ottoman domination, which started in 1516. |
