Hi CAF. I have researched for some time the existence of Catholic lineages, which list a current Bishop/Patriarch of our Church, and go all the way back to one of the 12 apostles of Jesus Christ. The lists I have found are in the following document:

Catholic Apostolic Lists

Note: The above link shows a few lists which need a little update (for example, there is a new Pope).

Does anyone here know of the existence of lists which go from a current Bishop/Patriarch of our Church, to one of the 12 Apostles that is not in the above document?
The main reason why I posted this on Eastern Catholicism, is because most of these lists are from the Eastern Rites.

Thanks.
 
Hi. I have one list which you may be interested in. However I am not sure of its accurateness (and if someone here can speak on the matter that would be very good). Basically, the list begins from St. James the Just and goes all the way to a Catholic Patriarch called Fouad Twal. The list is exactly the same as that of the Eastern Orthodox Patriarchate until the year 1099. In 1099, the Western Crusaders captured Jerusalem, set up the Kingdom of Jerusalem and established a Latin hierarchy under a Latin Patriarch (in communion with Rome), while expelling the Orthodox Patriarch. So the list from here has “Arnulf of Chocques” as Patriach of Jerusalem, and ends in Fouad Twal. I’ll just post it here:

Oh yea sorry it is necessary for you to do so to see all the lists. Posting them here would take me a lot of space. Something that may be undesired.

Hmmm interesting. I’ve never seen this list. Is the Patriarch Fouad Twal considered then the actual successor of St. James the Just by the Catholic Church?

Quite frankly I am not sure. Of course he as Patriarch/Bishop is considered to be successor of the apostles. But the successor of St. James (as the Pope in Rome is considered to be successor of Peter) I am not sure. However I found one website which says he is “one” of James’ successors:

The document you posted is very nice by the way.

1- The Succession of Peter in the See of Rome.
2- Succession of Peter in Antioch (Melkite)
3- Succession of Peter in Antioch (Syriac)
