Ishoʿyahb Ishaʿya Yohannan Gabriel (or Jean Guriel, 1758–1833) was bishop of

Salmas of the Chaldean Catholic Church from 1795 to his death.[1]

Life

Isho'yahb Gabriel was born in

Yohannan Hormizd[3] (then metropolitan of Mosul), on the instructions of the Vatican
.

His appointment was resisted by a party in the Salmas district, who wanted as their bishop the priest Isaac, a nephew of the late metropolitan Ishoʿyahb Shemʿon. They sent Isaac to the Nestorian patriarch Shemʿon XVI Yohannan, who consecrated him bishop of Salmas at

Mar Thoma Christians of Malabar by the Vatican in 1801.[4]
