Rabban Hormizd
When Hormizd was sixty-five or sixty-six, he left the monastery and passing out of the

When he had been there some little time the people in the neighbourhood offered to build him a monastery, the present "Rabban Hormizd Monastery". The following part of the life of Rabban Hormizd is marked by episodes in which the saint opposed the monks of the Mar Mattai Monastery.
