Mor Philoxenos Yuhanon Dolabani, also known simply as Philoxenos Yuhanon Dolabani or simply Yuhanon Dolabani, was the Syriac Orthodox Metropolitan of Mardin, Turkey and its Environs. Born in 1885 in Mardin, he became interested in becoming a monk in the early 20th century, to which his parents objected at first.
