Synaxaire Arabe-Jacobite
Jacobite Arab Synaxarium or Synaxaire Arabe-Jacobite is a volume containing biographies of several saints and it utilized by the Syriac Orthodox Church.[1] It was initially published into French in 1904 in the Patrologia Orientalis by René Basset.[2] This is not to be confused with the Coptic Synaxarium, as some of the hagiographies noted appear identical and they both utilize the Egyptian Calendar. Variations have been found with additional Nubian Church material in them, albeit in fragmentary form.[3] Some of these saints include:
- Abadios, a feast day is on January 20.[4]
- Abakuh (also known as Apa Kauh), another feast day is January 23. He is referenced in the Synaxaire Arabe-Jacobite.[4]
