  • History of the monks of the monastery of Sabrisho
Period covered:
Unknown
Language:
Syriac
State of Preservation:
Fragmentary
Genre:
  • Biography (collective)
Remarks:
The Syriac title is not included here, as Scher does not provide the original text in his article and we do not have access to the manuscripts. David is mentioned among Sabrisho's pupils (d. 650), therefore his life and work can most likely be placed in the seventh century.
