Biography
Joseph Badr al-Din Zakhi bar Wahib was born at Korinsha in the Tur Abdin in the 13th century, and was the son of Abraham.[3] He was raised at Mardin,[4] and became a monk at the nearby Monastery of Saint Ananias.[3] Patriarch Philoxenus I Nemrud consecrated bar Wahib as Archbishop of Mardin in 1287, upon which he assumed the name Ignatius.[5]
He was elected as the patriarch of Mardin at a synod at the Monastery of Saint Ananias at the beginning of January 1293, and was consecrated by Ignatius, Archbishop of Qartmin.[6] In 1303, he convened a synod at the Monastery of Saint Ananias, in which he issued ten canons, and was attended by five bishops. [7] Bar Wahib served as patriarch of Mardin until his death in 1333.[3]
Works
Bar Wahib wrote two books on Syriac and Arab phonetics, and a liturgy in 1304.[8] As well as this, he wrote a treatise on the definition of prayers and rituals.[8]
