'''Jonathan ben Ananus''' was the Jewish High Priest from 36 to 37 CE.
==Overview==
Jonathan was one of the five sons of [[Annas]] to take the office of High Priest. In 36 CE the Roman Governor of Syria, [[Vitellius]], removed the Roman Governor [[Pontius Pilate]], who was accused of misconduct, and sent him back to Rome. Vitellius appointed his friend [[Marcellus]] to take care of affairs in Judea. He also deposed the powerful High Priest  [[Caiaphas]] and replaced him with his brother-in-law Jonathan. One year later, while visiting Jerusalem, [[Vitellius]] replaced Jonathan with his brother [[Theophilus ben Ananus|Theophilus]].
