In hagiography: Ezekiel was a monk who was born on the same day as the Emperor Constantine the Great. He was a Jew from the tribe of Manasseh who went to Egypt and became a disciple of Mar Awgin. Mar Awgin and his disciples left for the region of Adiabene and Beth Garmai. They went to Maḥoze and baptized the entire city, after they healed the sick. Ezekiel went around the region converting the "Magians." He founded a monastery near Daduq. He ended his life in the region of Kirkuk.
