Biography

Athanasius was born at Balad, and studied Syriac, Greek, and sciences under Severus Sebokht at the monastery of Qenneshre,Шаблон:Sfnp where he became friends with Jacob of Edessa.Шаблон:Sfnp After becoming a monk at the monastery of Beth Malka near Antioch, he continued his studies, and was educated in philosophy.Шаблон:Sfnp Athanasius was later ordained as a priest, and made his residence at Nisibis.Шаблон:Sfnp

In the tenure of the Patriarch Severus II bar Masqeh, the church had suffered schism between the patriarch and a number of bishops over the issue of the right of archbishops to ordain suffragan bishops.Шаблон:Sfnp On his deathbed, Severus authorised John, archbishop of the monastery of Saint Matthew, to reconcile with the errant bishops,Шаблон:Sfnp and after his death earlier in the year, a synod was held at the monastery of Asphulos near Reshʿayna in the summer of 684.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfnp At the synod, the schism was brought to an end,Шаблон:Sfnp and Athanasius was consecrated as Severus' successor as patriarch of Antioch by Ananias, bishop of Merde and Kfar Tutho.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfnp

Athanasius' consecration is placed in 684 (AG 995) in the Chronicle of Michael the Syrian and the Ecclesiastical History of Bar Hebraeus,Шаблон:Sfnp whereas the Chronicle of 846 and Zuqnin Chronicle erroneously give 687 (AG 999) due to confusion between Athanasius' consecration and death.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfnp In the same year as his ascension to the patriarchal office, he issued an encyclical addressed to rural bishops (chorepiscopi) and priests (periodeutai) on the relationship between adherents and other religious groups.Шаблон:Sfnp In the encyclical, Athanasius forbade priests from baptising or giving the Eucharist to Julianists, Nestorians, and other sects.Шаблон:Sfnp The encyclical also expressed Athanasius' condemnation of Christian women who married Muslims,Шаблон:Sfnp but he did permit them to continue to receive the Eucharist, and encouraged clergy to ensure the children of these marriages were baptised, did not participate in Muslim festivals,Шаблон:Sfnp and did not consume sacrificial meat.Шаблон:Sfnp

Prior to his death, Athanasius instructed the bishop Sergius Zkhunoyo to consecrate his student George as bishop of the Arabs.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfnp Athanasius subsequently died in September 687.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfnp 687 (AG 998) is derived as the year of Athanasius' death from the histories of Michael the Syrian and Bar Hebraeus,Шаблон:Sfnp whilst the Zuqnin Chronicle places it in 703/704 (AG 1015).Шаблон:Sfnp

Athanasius was a prolific translator of Greek works into Syriac, including Porphyry's Isagoge in January 645, as well as an anonymous Greek text on logic.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfnp At the request of the archbishops Matthew of Aleppo and Daniel of Edessa, Athanasius translated nine treatises of the Hexameron by Basil of Caesarea in 666/667.Шаблон:Sfnp In 669, whilst at Nisibis, he completed a translation of a number of letters of Severus of Antioch following a commission from Matthew of Aleppo and Daniel of Edessa.Шаблон:Sfnp Severus of Antioch's second discourse against Nephalius, several homilies by Gregory of Nazianzus, and the book of Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite were also translated by Athanasius.Шаблон:Sfnp He is also known to have translated several works of Aristotle, such as Prior Analytics, Topics, and Sophistical Refutations.Шаблон:Sfnp
