Ibrahim ibn Yuhanna

Ibrahim ibn Yuhanna (Arabic: إبراهيم بن يوحنا) was a Byzantine bureaucrat, translator, and author from Antioch in the late 10th and early 11th centuries.

[4] He evidently found success in the imperial bureaucracy after the Byzantines conquered Antioch in 969, given his elevated title.

The Life describes events in the time of Patriarch Nicholas II (1025–1030), so Ibrahim must have lived at least to the very late 1020s.

[4] On the other hand, it seems that the bulk of Ibrahim's scholarly work was devoted to Arabic translations of Greek theological texts.

He is known to have translated homilies by Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nazianzus, Gregory of Nyssa, and John Chrysostom; a portion of the Divine Names of Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite; and panegyrics for the evangelists Luke and John from the Menologion of his contemporary Symeon the Metaphrast.
