Sabrisho's patriarchate
[edit]The following account of Sabrisho[ʿ] Error: {{Transliteration}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help)'s patriarchate is given by Bar Hebraeus:
Yohannan VII was succeeded by Sabrisho[ʿ] Error: {{Transliteration}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help) Zanbur ('the wasp'), the bishop of Nishapur. His election was pushed through by force by Abu Sa[ʿ] Error: {{Transliteration}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help)id the tax-collector of Ispahan, who compelled the bishops and obtained their agreement. Being anxious to gratify the metropolitan [[Abdisho II|[ʿ] Error: {{Transliteration}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help)Abdisho[ʿ] Error: {{Transliteration}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help)]] of Nisibis, he introduced the custom of allowing the metropolitan of Nisibis to take part in the election of a patriarch. He was consecrated on a Sunday, on the third day of ab [August] in the year 1372 of the Greeks [AD 1061]. Shortly afterwards he was struck by an apoplexy and lost the use of his limbs. He fulfilled his office for ten years and died on the third day of nisan [April] in the year 1383 [AD 1072].[1]
