Remarks:
Bar Ebroyo reports that Sabrisho was the author of an Ecclesiastical history (Abbeloos – Lamy 1877: 107). Although referred to as Ecclesiastical history, in fact this work looks like a legendary life. The preserved fragment narrates the encounter between Sabrisho and the emperor Maurice. The vocalisation of the title follows Guidi's transcription (Guidi 1886).
