The Baptism of Hibil Ziwa or Diwan Maṣbuta ḏ-Hibil Ziwa (Classical Mandaic: ࡃࡉࡅࡀࡍ ࡌࡀࡑࡁࡅࡕࡀ ࡖࡄࡉࡁࡉࡋ ࡆࡉࡅࡀ, "Scroll of the Baptism of Hibil Ziwa") is a Mandaean illustrated scroll. It describes the soteriological descent of Hibil Ziwa to the World of Darkness, and his baptisms before and after. The scroll is essentially also a commentary on the masbuta, or Mandaean ritual baptism.[1]
The scroll is lavishly illustrated, showing figures of dozens of uthras and mythological creatures and realms.
