 He studied first in Dimitsana, later in [[Athens]] and finally in [[Smyrna]] at the Theological School. In 1775, he was ordained a deacon and evetually ([[1785]]) succeeded [[Patriarch Procopius|Procopius]] as Bishop of Smyrna when the latter became Patriarch of [[Constantinople]].
-In [[1797]], Gregory, himself, was elected Ecumenical Patriarch, an office that he would hold 3 times in his life. In [[1818]] he became a member of the Friendly Society ([[Filiki Eteria]]) which was preparing the revolt of the Greek nation against Ottoman rule. However, in March [[1821]], when [[Alexander Ypsilantis]] crossed the Prut river to start the revolt in Romania, Patriarch Gregory V excommunicated him in order to save the Greeks of Constantinople from reprisals. The reprisals took place after the [[War of Independence|Greek Revolution]] broke out in [[Peloponnesus]] on [[25 March]] 1821. Many important officials of the Greek community were imprisoned and / or executed and among them was Patriarch Gregory who was seized and hanged in the central outside portal of the Patriarchate. The door has remained shut and out of use ever since. After three days, the Turks took down the Patriarch's body and surrendered it to Jews who dragged it through the streets before throwing it into the sea. A Greek boatsman, named I. Sklavos, managed to recover the body and brought it to Odessa (present-day Ukraine) where it was buried with honours.
