In the first part the author analyses a hagiographic legend concerning a miraculous image of Christ performing miracles in Tiberias, with a particular focus on the relationship between this legend and the foundation of a monastery known under the name of St. Ananias. In the second part, the article focuses on various literary witnesses of this monastery in Syriac and Arabic sources, namely John of Ephesus, Bar Hebraeus, Michael the Syrian and Theodore Abû Qurrah. Between the locations that have been proposed for this monastery, the desert between Bâlis and Callinicum (modern al-Raqqah) is ultimately the most likely. In the final part of the article, the relationships between the miracle tale and the iconodoule propaganda are considered, paying a particular attention to the narrative setting (Tiberias) and to its fame as birthplace of the iconoclastic heresy according to orthodox heresiology.
