Biography

Jacob was born at al-Aḥmadiyya, a village near Ṣawro in Tur Abdin, and was the son of the rahib (monk) Maqdisi Hasan, son of the rahib 'Abd Allah of the Muzawwiq family.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfnp Aphram Barsoum suggests that Jacob's father and grandfather had likely been novice monks without ordination that had laicised, but retained the designation of monk, for which Jacob was known as "al-Khuri".Шаблон:Sfnp He became a monk and priest at the monastery of Saint Moses the Abyssinian, near Al-Nabek in Syria, and studied under the malphono (theological doctor) monk-priest Moses, son of 'Ubayd of Sadad.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfnp Here, he became proficient in Syriac and calligraphy, and befriended the monk David of Homs.Шаблон:Sfnp For this, he gained the sobriquet "Nabki" or "of Al-Nabk", which led later writers to erroneously claim he was from Syria, whilst others gave Damascus as his place of birth.Шаблон:Sfnp

Jacob subsequently travelled to the monastery of Saint Ananias, and from there to the monastery of Saint Abay, near Qeleth, in 1480.Шаблон:Sfnp He also visited the monastery of the Syrians in Egypt in 1482.Шаблон:Sfnp He is noted to have moved to the monastery of Saint Balai in Tur Abdin by 1487 and later resided at the monastery of Saint Ananias in 1489.Шаблон:Sfnp Joseph al-Gurji, future archbishop of Jerusalem, studied under Jacob at some point.Шаблон:Sfnp In 1496, he was ordained as archbishop of Amida by Patriarch Ignatius Noah of Lebanon, upon which he assumed the name Philoxenus, alongside Dionysius David, who was appointed as archbishop of Ma‘dan.Шаблон:Sfnp The deacon Nur al-Din, son of Shallila, composed an ode in praise of Jacob's conduct in this office, a copy of which was later found by Aphrem Barsoum.Шаблон:Sfnp

After the death of the patriarch Ignatius Noah in 1509, a synod was convened at the monastery of Saint Ananias in the same year and Severus Yeshu, archbishop of the monastery of Saint Abay, was elected as his successor as patriarch of Antioch.Шаблон:Sfnp However, for reasons unknown, Jacob was also appointed as patriarch of Antioch in 1510 or 1512, assuming the name Ignatius, whilst Yeshu was still patriarch.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Refn In addition, the bishops of Syria ordained Athanasius bar Subay of Al-Nabek as patriarch in 1511 in opposition to Yeshu and Jacob.Шаблон:Sfnp According to David Wilmshurst, Jacob and Yeshu ruled concurrent with one another until 1519,Шаблон:Sfnp whilst Aphrem Barsoum notes that Athanasius bar Subay simultaneously claimed the patriarchal office until his death likely at some point between 1514 and 1518.Шаблон:Sfnp

In a homologia (confession) found at Edessa, it is recorded that Jacob ordained deacon Abd Allah for the church of Saint Mary at Amida and deacon Ghazal for the churches of Saint Ahudemmeh and Saint Thomas at Mosul on 6 August 1512.Шаблон:Sfnp He served as patriarch of Antioch until his death in 1517 or 1519.Шаблон:Refn

Works

A number of works written by Jacob on various subjects have survived, including a Beth Gazo (Za'faran MS. 124), written in 1488.Шаблон:Sfnp Several lines of his poetry on the subject of repentance are attested in a grammar book at Midyat,Шаблон:Sfnp as well as his comments on some festivals are contained in a homologia (Paris Library MS. 112).Шаблон:Sfnp He also wrote a historical tract including the chronicles of David of Homs, that were later found at the monastery of the Cross.Шаблон:Sfnp Jacob is further credited with a manuscript on the canons of baptism, marriage, and repentance, found at the library at Edessa.Шаблон:Sfnp
