On fol. 92 b there is a note, stating that this manuscript was written, in the year 1495 (A.D. 1184), by the deacon Rabban John, the deacon Rabban Zakhe, and a priest, whose name has been erased, for the use of the priest Rabban Saliba, from the village of ܟ݂ܦܪ ܪܟܥ in Tūr ‘Abdīn. This name is indistinct, some one having smeared it over with red paint, and substituted for it on the margin that of ܒܝܬ ܢܚ̣̈ܠܐ .
