Metodije (fl. 1219) was the Serbian Orthodox bishop of Raška in the first half of the 13th century. He was the hegumen of Hilandar, serving Archbishop Sava.[1] After the autocephaly of the Serbian Church (15 August 1219), Metodije was appointed the bishop of Raška and hieromonk Ilarion of Hilandar was appointed the bishop of Zeta; Raška and Zeta were the central regions of Serbia.[1]
