He had two ch ildren\, Prince Behnam &\; Princess Sarah. Prince Behnam was a strong w arrior who was always accompanied by 40 armed servants\, however Sarah was sadly afflicted by a severe form of leprosy. One day prince Behnam went h unting in the wilderness with some of his servants. He saw a large animal &\; chased it\, separating himself from the group. Night came &\; he slept alone in the wilderness. He had a dream that someone was telling hi m to look for a man named Matthew\, who lived in that mountainous area\, t his Mathew would pray for his sister &\; she would be cured. The next m orning he set out to find his party\, &\; together they searched for Mo r Mattai. They found him in a cave within the mountains. Behnam told monk Mathew about his sister &\; the previous night's vision. He asked Mor M attai to join him &\; return to the palace. There\, Behnam informed his mother who allowed St. Mathew to see Sarah. Mor Mattai prayed over her\, &\; she was miraculously cured of her disease. St. Mathew taught them a bout the Lord Jesus Christ &\; the reward of the Heavenly Kingdom. Hear ing of the Gospel\, Behnam &\; Sarah were baptized by Mor Mattai &\; accepted Christianity. St. Mathew returned to his cave soon afterward. Th e King was delighted to see his daughter healed. Upon asking how this happ ened\, St. Sarah told the king about Mor Mattai\, &\; that they had acc epted Christ as Lord. Sennaharib was furious &\; told them to renounce their Christian faith or face punishment\; but the siblings refused. They fled at night in secret along with the companions who also accepted Christ . Sadly\, the King found out &\; he ordered his army to chase them. The siblings &\; their companions were slaughtered. The hill upon which th e group was standing caved in. Thus Mor Behnam\, his sister Mort Sara & \; their 40 companions attained the crown of martyrdom. The king was soon afflicted by the possession of an evil spirit which tormented him agonizin gly. Behnam appeared to his mother in a dream &\; told her to get Mor M attai. The queen\, believing Mor Mattai to be capable of healing the king called for him to visit the palace. St. Mathew prayed over the king who wa s then healed. The king repented of his evil ways &\; along with the qu een accepted Christianity &\; was baptized. Soon their entire kingdom h eard the Gospel &\; were baptized as well. King Sennaharib built 2 mona steries\, Dayro d-Mor Mattai &\; Dayro d-Mor Behnam u Mort Sara (where he had his son &\; daughter entombed\, it's also called the 'pit monast ery'). Many works of miracles occur due to the intercession of St. Behnam &\; St. Sarah. Their relics are venerated with great reverence.
